An Original Vintage Theatrical Autographed Movie 8 1/4" x 10" [21 x 25 cm] Key Book Still (Learn More)

Raymond Massey was a Canadian actor from the 1930s to the 1950s. Some of his movies include: Arsenic and Old Lace, A Matter of Life and Death, The Prisoner of Zenda, East of Eden, The Woman in the Window, Abe Lincoln In Illinois (nominated for the Best Actor Academy Award for this film), How the West Was Won, A Canterbury Tale, Forty-Ninth Parallel, The Scarlet Pimpernel, The Old Dark House, The Fountainhead, and William Cameron Menzies' early science fiction (sci-fi) classic Things to Come. In addition to his great movie success, he also played Dr. Gillespie in the extremely popular "Dr. Kildare" TV series in the early 1960s. He passed away in 1983 at the age of 86.
Important Added Info: Note that this still has been personally autographed (signed) by Raymond Massey! Our consignor is a longtime collector who purchased this signed item from a reputable dealer. He does not have a certificate of authenticity, but we believe the signature to likely be authentic.

Note that this is a key book still that measures 8" x 10". There are many key book stills that measure 8" x 11" and have punch holes in the extra 1", but this is one of the key book stills that measures 8" x 10" exactly, and has no punch holes, and it has a stamp on the back that reads "THIS IS A KEY SET PRINT". Many studios spent extra money to have their most special photos, the key book stills, either backed with linen or printed on a heavy paper, both of which enhanced their durability. They had an extra 1" at the left or top, with punch holes, because of how they were stored. Key book stills are far more rare than regular stills, which has increased their popularity among collectors, since only a few keybooks were manufactured per film, and a key book still is guaranteed to be authentic.



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 and they can return any item as long as it is within 30 days of the end of the auction.
