An Autographed Photo (measures 4" x 6" [10 x 15 cm]; entire frame measures 6 3/4" x 8 3/4") (Learn More) Loie Fuller was an actress, dancer and director from the 1890s to the 1920s. Originally from Chicago, Illinois, she moved to Paris, France in 1892, where she was warmly received and stayed, and became the most famous dancer in the world at that time. She was admired by Sarah Bernhardt and Toulouse-Lautrec, and was called "The Goddess of Art Nouveau". Some of her movies include: Fire Dance, La Lus de la Vie, and Danse Serpentine. She passed away in 1928 at the age of 65. Important Added Info: Note that this photo has been personally autographed (signed) by Loie Fuller! It was framed and displayed on Jan Wahl's wall (see below), and it is still in the frame in which he displayed it. We have removed it from the frame so that we could examine the item, and we photographed the front and back of the photo, and also as it is displayed in the frame, and it will be shipped to the winning bidder reassembled. Note that this is from a remarkable collection of 26 items (mostly postcards and German Ross postcards) we were consigned from the estate of the late Jan Wahl. Mr. Wahl wrote over 100 children's books and received many awards, including the Coretta Scott King Prize. Throughout his career, he had a great love of silent film, and he collected many items from silent films, including the 26 items we are currently auctioning. Some of them are framed, because they were on the walls of Mr. Wahl's house! Finally, note that this does not come with a certificate of authenticity, but given the fact that Mr. Wahl purchased this item decades ago (and he noted on the back of the frame that he purchased it from the collection of A.J. Pischl), and given that he was an expert in such items, we think it is incredibly likely the signature is authentic. This is a rare opportunity to purchase autographed items from great silent film stars that have a wonderful provenance! 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. On non-signed items, we give a "lifetime guarantee" on everything we auction, but on signed items, we give the above modified guarantee of 30 days after the auction closes. Condition: very good. The photo is on heavy paper stock and was once glued to an album page. There is much paper residue on the back of the borders of the photo, and there is surface paper loss in the center of the back, which affects the photographer's name. But none of this affects the front of the photo (see our images). Learn More about condition grades
