An Original Vintage Theatrical Autographed 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Dean Martin was an actor and singer from the 1940s to the 1980s. He first started performing in 1940 (after having spent time as a boxer name "Kid Crochett"), but it was not until 1943 that he started getting nationally noticed. Interestingly, an article from 1944 called him "a threat to Frank Sinatra" and that he was "surefire for stage, screen, or radio". Of course, later he was a member of the Rat Pack with Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr., and Peter Lawford. He was partnered with Jerry Lewis in live performances and in a series of memorable movies until they had a very publicized break-up, after which each had long solo careers. Some of his movies include: Rio Bravo, The Silencers, The Young Lions, and Some Came Running. Martin passed away in 1995 at the age of 78. Important Added Info: Note that this still has been personally autographed (signed) by Dean Martin! Note this still and nineteen others have signatures with an unusual provenance. One of the best known poster exchanges there is, the one in Canton, Oklahoma, was owned for many years by Cleophas and Lou Ann Wooley (and it is still open, but very sadly, Mrs. Wooley passed away). These stills were given (two of each star) by the Wooleys to a friend of theirs who went to many Hollywood events, and he would obtain autographs on both of them, and keep one for himself and send one back to the Wooleys (and often he would tell the star the story, and they would sign one either "To The Wooleys" or to one of them individually. Our consignor does not have a certificate of authenticity, but we are certain the autographs are authentic, and they have a cool "provenance"! As is true of all the signed items we are currently auctioning, we give every buyer 30 days in which to review what they purchased (although we prefer they do any "authenticating" while the auction is "live" and before they place a bid) and they can return any item as long as it is within 30 days of the end of the auction. On non-signed items, we give a "lifetime guarantee" on everything we auction, but on signed items, we give the above modified guarantee of 30 days after the auction closes. Condition: very good to fine. Learn More about condition grades
