Auction History Result 1a741 GENE KELLY signed 8x9.75 REPRO still '80s pictured w/ Debbie Reynolds in Singin' in the Rain! Date Sold 8/14/2014 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Autographed 8" x 9 3/4" [20 x 25 cm] REPRODUCTION Still (Learn More) Gene Kelly (born Eugene Curran Kelly) was a legendary musical and dance star (but he also appeared in straight dramatic roles) from the 1940s through the 1990s. Together with Fred Astaire, he is one of the two best remembered stars of dancing musicals, and yet he was far from an overnight success. He made his first movie in 1942, "For Me and My Gal", when he was 30 years old, and for most of the 1940s, he did not make many appearances in musicals. Between 1948 and 1951, he appeared in several memorable musicals, but he and his wife, Betsy Blair, were caught up in the blacklisting scandals of the early 1950s, and while he himself was not blacklisted, it did hurt his career. Some of his movies include: Singin' in the Rain, Inherit the Wind, On the Town, An American in Paris, Anchors Aweigh (nominated for the Best Actor Academy Award for this film), and scores of others! He passed away in 1996 at the age of 83. Important Added Info: Note that this REPRODUCTION still has been personally autographed (signed) by Gene Kelly! Also note that this still measures 8" x 9 3/4" [20 x 25 cm], but it has not been trimmed. Note that our consignor purchased a collection of autographed stills that were collected by Leonard Sorgi, who was a unit manager for ABC for shows like The Soupy Sales Show, The Jerry Mahoney Show, and many others.
