Auction History Result 5a406 JANE RUSSELL signed 8x10 publicity still '80s beautiful after decades, Founder of WAIF! Date Sold 11/15/2012 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Autographed 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Publicity Still (Learn More) Jane Russell was an actress from the 1940s to the 1970s. She was discovered by Howard Hughes in 1941, and starred in The Outlaw, which was completed in 1941, but the movie was held up for five long years by censorship troubles. It is very sad that she lost those five years (which likely would have been very productive for her), and by the 1960s, roles for her were drying up, and she only made four movies in the 1960s, and two in 1970, at which point she stopped making any movies (although she did ads for Playtex bras in the 1970s!). Some of her other movies include: Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, His Kind of Woman, The Paleface, Son of Paleface, and The Revolt of Mamie Stover. She passed away in 2011 at the age of 89. Important Added Info: Note that this still has been personally autographed (signed) by Jane Russell! Note that this item was consigned to us by a man who had made a hobby of corresponding with famous celebrities starting in the late 1980s and continuing into the middle 1990s. He developed friendships with many of the stars, and he would always enclose one or more photos for them to sign. We are certain that this signature is authentic! Also note that many celebrities kept multiple 8" x 10" (or smaller) copies of good publicity images of themselves to sign for fans, and also many memorabilia shops sold such copy stills themselves. While they are not original theater-used stills, they are usually excellent clear copies, with a great shot of that celebrity in their heyday, which, when signed by the celebrity, makes for a wonderful framed picture on any fan's wall! Condition: very good. There is a faint crease in Russell's forehead, but it is mostly only noticeable when the still is tilted to the light, but the still is otherwise in pretty nice condition!
