NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this item has been personally autographed (signed) by BOTH Bette Davis AND Errol Flynn! Our consignor is a longtime German dealer who purchased this from a collector who said he obtained the autographs when the movie premiered in Germany, but he has no certificate of authenticity, so we ask anyone bidding on it to thoroughly compare this signatures to ones known to be signed by Flynn and Davis BEFORE placing a bid (but bear in mind that the buyer will have 30 days after the auction to get the signatures authenticated, and they can return it for a full refund within that 30 days). Condition: good to very good. The program had two punch holes at the spine. It was folded once in each direction and had some small tears around the edges. Someone simply glued the back cover to a 8 1/2" x 12 1/2" stiff backing sheet and did no restoration (see our image). You can open the cover of the program to see the two interior pages, but of course, the back cover is no longer visible, because it is glued to the backing sheet. Learn More about condition grades
