Auction History Result 1a334 ELKE SOMMER signed 8x10 publicity still '90s wonderful portrait of the sexy German blonde! Date Sold 8/14/2014 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Autographed 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Publicity Still (Learn More) Elke Sommer (born Elke Schletz) is a sexy blonde German actress from the 1950s to the present. She was born in 1940 and her father was a Lutheran minister, but sadly he died when she was just 14. Her mother let her go to England when she was just 16 to be an au pair to an actress, and the following year director Vittorio De Sica discovered her and she was in movies when she was 17. Some of her movies include: A Shot in the Dark, The Victors, The Prize, The Wrecking Crew, and The Money Trap. She memorably had pictorials in the September 1964 and December 1967 issues of Playboy magazine. She moved back to Germany in the 1980s, and continued to act there, in both movies and on TV. She much later moved to Los Angeles and as of 2023 is still alive at the age of 83! Important Added Info: Note that this still has been personally autographed (signed) by Elke Sommer! 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! Note that this item was consigned to us by a man who has been a major movie memorabilia dealer for many years. During that time, he would regularly purchase collections of movie memorabilia from both collectors and people who worked on movies, and in some of those collections he purchased many autographed items, and sometimes he met with celebrities and had them autograph items he owned in person. Both we and our consignor feel it is extremely likely that the autograph on this item is authentic, but he does not have a certificate of authenticity. Condition: very good to fine.
