Auction History Result 1e256 MITZI GREEN signed deluxe 8x10 still '30s close up of the child actress smiling with her dog! Date Sold 3/31/2011 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Theatrical Autographed Deluxe 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Mitzi Green was a child actress in the 1930s (known as "Little Mitzi"). She is probably best remembered for playing Little Orphan Annie in the 1932 movie of that name. Some of her other movies include: Tom Sawyer, Huckleberry Finn, and Lost in Alaska. She passed away in 1969 at the age of 48 from cancer. Important Added Info: Note that this still has been personally autographed (signed) by Mitzi Green! Also note that this is a deluxe still printed on double weight paper stock. Note that this autographed 8x10 is one of 91 that were consigned to us by a former theater owner. He owned two different major theaters in Louisiana from the 1940s through the 1970s, and he sometimes had premieres of movies at his theaters, at which time some of the celebrities connected to the movies would appear in person (this was often done in the 1950s and 1960s). When celebrities came to his theater, he would have them autograph 8x10 stills for him in person, and that got him started collecting signed stills, so at some point in the 1950s, he began requesting the studios to have them send him stills signed by the stars of movies he had recently shown at his theater when he was holding a special event or having the anniversary of his theater's opening! Over the next decade, he collected 91 signed stills that were sent to him by the studios through the mail, as well as several dozen that he obtained in person. We auctioned those "in person" signed stills in our previous auctions, and now we are auctioning the 91 stills where he obtained the signatures through the mail from the studios. We know for certain that he received these stills directly from the studios, but we can't say for certain if the stills were signed by the stars or if they were signed by secretaries. But since he owned a major theater, and since many of the stills were personalized to him (or to his theater), we would think it likely that most, if not all, of these 91 stills have genuine signatures that are NOT secretarial signatures. But we suggest that anyone bidding on these stills compare their signatures to other examples of that star's signature, so they can best determine if the signature is from that star. Condition: good. There are some tiny dot stains in the image (a few in Green's upper lip and right ear, and a few just below the dog's face). There are some pencil marks and faint smudges in the bottom of the right border. Learn More about condition grades
