Auction History Result 2a991 GENE KELLY signed 5x7 REPRO still '80s great head & shoulders portrait wearing suit & tie! Date Sold 6/19/2012 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Autographed 5" x 7" [13 x 18 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 REPRODUCTION still measures 5" x 7" [13 x 18 cm]. Our consignor is a longtime collector of movie posters who purchased this item years ago, and it was signed, but he doesn't know how the signature was obtained, and he (and we) believe it is likely that the autograph is authentic. Condition: good to very good. The REPRO was glued to the envelope it was originally mailed in, which caused it to become very slightly rippled throughout. Learn More about condition grades
