Auction History Result 7x153 LOT OF 9 RITA HAYWORTH TRIMMED 8X10 STILLS AND 3 DEALER RE-STRIKES 1940s-1970s sexy portraits! Date Sold 7/2/2017 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. a lot of 9 Rita Hayworth trimmed 1940s 8x10 stills and 3 dealer re-strikes. Note that we believe that three of these photos are either dealer re-strikes or possibly TV re-release stills. There are nine of the photos that are likely originals from the year the movies came out. Two of them have a photographer's stamp on the back and one has a snipe, but all seven of those were glued to an album page and have glue stains and tape residue on the back, and one is glued to a backing board. Rita Hayworth was born in 1918. During the early 1940s she was one of the greatest sex symbols the movies has ever had, most notably in the 1946 movie, Gilda. But she was born Margarita Cansino, and was originally a child dancer with her father. She later caught the attention of Harry Cohn at Columbia, who cast her as a sexy dancer in some late 1930s movies, first billing her as Rita Cansino, and then renaming her to Hayworth (her mother's maiden name). Cohn did all he could to get rid of her Spanish ethnicity, changing her name, having her dye her black hair red, and having her hairline raised! She made many memorable dance movies (including ones opposite both Fred Astaire and Gene Kelly!), but she is probably best remembered for her five steamy sex melodramas opposite Glenn Ford. She had a tumultuous private life, marrying five times, most memorably to Orson Welles and Prince Aly Khan (this was before Grace Kelly married her prince!). Her most famous quote (explaining why she married so many times) was "Every man I have ever known has fallen in love with Gilda and awakened with me." She exhibited erratic behavior in her later years because she suffered from early Alzheimer's, which went undiagnosed for quite some time, and in those later years until her death she was cared for by her daughter, Princess Yasmin Khan, who has also been a champion of raising money for Alzheimer's research. She is also best remembered for her roles in The Lady from Shanghai, Only Angels Have Wings, Separate Tables, Tales of Manhattan, and many others! Note that the items in this lot are from the 1940s to the 1970s. Measurements: from 7 1/2" x 9 1/2" to 8" x 10"Condition: good. The nine original stills were trimmed and then glued to album pages and have glue stains and tape residue on the back, and one is glued to a backing board. The other three stills, which we think are in pretty nice condition, but those are re-strikes or re-releases. Learn More about condition grades Titles included:
