Auction History Result 1h403 JOHN PAYNE signed 8.25x10 still 1948 great portrait wearing suit & hat in Larceny! Date Sold 10/28/2018 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Autographed 8 1/4" x 10" [21 x 25 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) John Payne was an actor from the 1930s to the 1970s. He became an actor in 1936, but had only small success until he was signed by 20th Century-Fox in 1940, and he quickly became one of their top stars, and his most successful movie was the last one he made at Fox, "Miracle on 34th Street". He moved to RKO and reinvented himself as a tough film noir star, and he had a successful career over the next few decades (despite a car accident in 1961 which almost ended his life and sidelined him for two years while recovering). He was married to Anne Shirley from 1937 to 1943 (but she left him in January of 1942), Gloria DeHaven from 1944 to 1951, and Alexandra Crowell Curtis from 1951 to his death in 1989. Some of his other movies include: Kansas City Confidential, Tin Pan Alley, and Sun Valley Serenade. He passed away in 1989 at the age of 77. Important Added Info: Note that this still has been personally autographed (signed) by John Payne! Note that this item was consigned to us from the family of Ken Jones, who was an author of books about movies (including books about character actors and western stars). In the course of researching his books, he became friends with many Hollywood actors, and he would ask them to autograph stills for him (originals if he had them, or repros if he did not), and they obliged, usually returning the stills to him with a personalized inscription "To Ken". In the case of this still, he likely purchased it autographed, because it is not autographed to him. The family does not have a letter of authenticity for this signed item, but we feel certain it is authentic, given Mr. Jones' personal relationship with the star. 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: good.
