An example of a very scarce and desirable poster, issued in 1977 in Glendale, California, featuring a montage of images of Johnny Weissmuller (1904-1984), the actor who famously played the role of Tarzan in the series of movies between 1932 and 1948. Weissmuller signed in magic marker at lower center, and the piece is numbered 976/1500 at lower right. Weissmuller was an Olympic gold swimmer in the 1920's, and he brought the athletic physique to Hollywood, with lasting impact...

An opportunity to acquire TWO items autographed later in life by the grand dame of Hollywood, Katharine Houghton Hepburn (May 12, 1907 – June 29, 2003). Hepburn was a leading lady in Hollywood for more than 60 years, and received a record four Academy Awards for Best Actress...

An original HAND WRITTEN LETTER AND ENVELOPE, to a Miss Dorothy Irwin on Hollywood Blvd., written entirely in green ink, postmarked Sept. 28, 1942, around the peak of the career of famed American actress BETTE DAVIS (1908-1989), whose career spanned some 50 years...

A PAIR of original glossy black and white photos of actors HURD HATFIELD (1917-1998) and GENE NELSON (1920-1996), circa 1940's, both autographed and inscribed to an as yet unidentified "Wilson", which is the principal reason why I have decided to sell them together (they are also identical sizes and identically framed and matted). The Hatfield has the following inscription at left: "For Wilson--with admiration for his dancing---In friendship--Yours, Hurd Hatfield"...

Black and white photo (9 3/4" by 8", 16" by 13 3/4" framed) of Rick "Ricky" Nelson, circa late 1950's, autographed at right and inscribed "To Jill". The signature and inscription are bold and nicely placed at right center. Nelson officially changed his name to "Rick" in 1961, so this might have been signed after that. The framing seems to be circa late 1960's or 1970's. Nelson was born in Teaneck, New Jersey...

An early 20th century reproduction print of famed Belle Epoque actress SARAH BERNHARDT (1844-1923), **HAND SIGNED/INSCRIBED** by her. The signature is in ink at lower right (guaranteed her original ink signature and not printed). The print is after the 1879 etching by artist Jules Bastien-Lepage. This print under magnification has the dot matrix confirming it is a reproduction and not an original etching. The value is in the autograph and inscription...

Offered is a vintage orange-colored knit tunic such as would be worn by Star Trek series star William Shatner, along with a hand signed photo of him. Acquired in New England, I had investigated the possibility of this being a show-worn artifact, which would have been worth perhaps $10,000 in the open market for entertainment memorabilia...

A vintage note on Mary Poppins stationery, (6 1/2" by 4 1/2" sheet, and 10 1/2" by 13" framed--no glass), written in brown ink, signed by actress and Hollywood icon JULIE ANDREWS (born 1935), framed along with a circa 1980 photo of her (no glass). The note reads "For Laura--/With love and all good wishes/from/Julie Andrews/"Mary Poppins"...

An excellent clean fresh copy of the first edition of the 2012 book "An Evening with Marilyn", signed by the photographer DOUGLAS KIRKLAND and inscribed to an admirer/friend "George". The high quality printing, three pound book and dust jacket measures approximately 14" by 10". It is lavishly illustrated with color and black and white photos of the 1961 interlude between then-little known photographer Douglas Kirkland and the famous sex symbol...

A clean, fresh copy of the 2011 book "If You Ask Me", by the late American actress Betty White (1922-2021). This was the sixth book written by the beloved actress and pop culture icon. White passed away just short of her 100th birthday, for which a celebration had been planned. Like George Burns, she was noted for her longevity. The actress was active and in the public spotlight long after most would have retired...

A vintage, circa early 1930's original photograph of early screen actress and Hollywood socialite Marion Davies (1897-1961), bearing the embossed stamp of the photographer at right lower corner, and a stamp from Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer on reverse. The piece measures 12 1/2" by 9 1/2" inside the red mat and 21" by 17" framed. Bull was a prominent portrait and still photographer with the Hollywood studios, head of MGM's stills department for 40 years...

ONE OF TWO BY THE PHOTOGRAPHER, OF THIS SUBJECT, IN MY SHOP: A vintage, circa early 1930's original photograph of early screen actress and Hollywood socialite Marion Davies (1897-1961), bearing the stamp with the artist's name on reverse. The piece measures 13" by 10", and 18 1/2" by 14 1/2" in modern black wood framing (which exhibits two scraped areas as illustrated)...

A copy of 1971's bestseller book "The Exorcist", by William Peter Blatty, published by Harper and Row, this copy in dust jacket and **SIGNED** in black marker pen by the author. This may or may not be a first edition, but apparently it is not "first state" even if it is, as the last number on the last page is a "5". The book exhibits some sunning/stain on the spine itself (as opposed to the dust jacket), with a previous owner's name written in front, and the dust jacket has some wear, including...

A really unusually nice signed photo from the Harry Potter phenomenon, of star actor Daniel Radcliffe, on an iconic image of him with crossed arms. The photo is hand inscribed in silver marker: "Thank you! Daniel Radcliffe AS Harry Potter". No date. There are many autographed photos of him on the market but on many the signature is only very rapidly scrawled, and the photo is not as simple, direct, and classic. This example is a keeper.

This is a very unique item........NOT a print! It is an original drawing in pastel and gouache on a soft old board, measuring 40" by 30" extreme dimensions. The subject is a lovely young Gloria Swanson in a classic 20's 'do, probably created for some kind of advertising purpose like a lobby card, poster, etc., although I haven't found any printed item corresponding to this particular work (though I haven't looked exhaustively). See the net for much more information on the classic 1924 silent ...

A poster from 1984 advertising Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's documentary "That's Dancing", which explored the history of dancing in the movies, SIGNED AND DEDICATED "To Merton Shapiro Best Wishes Gene Kelly" in white at lower right. Gene Kelly (1912-1996) was a major American dancer and choreographer, from the late 1930's through his death in 1996.

A clean copy of the 2010 first edition of the book "Michael Jackson: The Making of Thriller", signed by DOUGLAS KIRKLAND, the noted photographer of celebrities, who in 1983 was invited to document the making of that now world-famous, iconic video. Kirkland in 1961 made a series of erotic photos of Marilyn Monroe, and his career grew rapidly in the sixties and seventies. This book shows in detail, from a fly-on-the-wall perspective, the creation of "Thriller", with many of the images documenti...
