An Autographed 2 3/4" x 6 1/4" [7 x 16 cm] Canceled Check (Learn More)

Greta Garbo was a legendary romantic Swedish actress from the 1924 to 1941 (she retired at the age of 35, still extremely popular, and lived in seclusion for many decades afterwards, living by her trademark expression, "I want to be alone"). Almost all other major leading ladies of the mid 1920s had their careers diminished or ruined by the coming of sound, but not Garbo, all the more remarkable because she was not native English-speaking and she had a strong accent. She first rose to prominence in a movie in her native Sweden, and then attracted the interest of Hollywood, but she would only sign a contract if they would sign her director as well, and MGM agreed! Some of her movies include: Ninotchka (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), Queen Christina, Grand Hotel, Anna Christie (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), Romance (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), and Camille (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film). Garbo passed away in 1990 at the age of 84.

Important Added Info: Note that this canceled check has been personally autographed (signed) by Greta Garbo (it is made out to Claire Koger, who was her longtime housekeeper)! Our consignor is a relative of Greta Garbo, and he inherited this directly from her estate. He does not have a certificate of authenticity, but we are certain the signature is authentic.

Condition: very good.
