An Autographed 7 1/2" x 9 1/2" [19 x 24 cm] Publicity Still (Learn More) Johnnie Ray was a singer, songwriter and pianist from the 1950s to the 1980s. He's been considered one of the major precursors to rock 'n' roll (rock and roll) music! Some of his hits include: Just Walking in the Rain, Broken Hearted, Let's Walk That Way, and Song of the Dreamer. He had a major role in 1954's "There's No Business Like Show Business", but that did not lead to further movies. He was a gay homosexual male at a time when you could not be, and he had an arrest in 1961 that caused him to be dropped from his record label, and he made no more records, and the rest of his life was filled with many ups and downs. He passed away in 1990 at the age of 63. Important Added Info: Note that this still has been personally autographed (signed) by Johnnie Ray! Also note that this still has been trimmed and it now measures 7 1/2" x 9 1/2" [19 x 24 cm]. Finally, note that many celebrities kept multiple 8" x 10" (or smaller) copies of good publicity images of themselves to sign for fans, and also many memorabilia shops sold such copy stills themselves. While they are not original theater-used stills, they are usually excellent clear copies, with a great shot of that celebrity in their heyday, which, when signed by the celebrity, makes for a wonderful framed picture on any fan's wall! Note that this item was consigned to us by a man who has been a major movie memorabilia dealer from the 1970s on. During that time, he would regularly purchase collections of movie memorabilia from both dealers and collectors, and in some of those collections he purchased autographed items. Both we and our consignor feel it is extremely likely that the autograph on this item is authentic, but he does not have a certificate of authenticity. 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. Condition: good. Learn More about condition grades
