An Autographed Color 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] REPRODUCTION Still (Learn More) Nellie Elizabeth "Irish" McCalla was born in Pawnee City, Nebraska. She moved to Hollywood when she was 17, and after working as a waitress and at an aircraft factory, she married and had two sons. But she also became a model (among other jobs she posed for pinup artist Alberto Vargas when he was working for Esquire), and she had a cameo role in a 1952 movie, River Goddesses. She was 5'10" and her measurements were reportedly 39-24-38! Her big break came when she was chosen to play the lead role in TV's "Sheena: Queen of the Jungle", although it only ran for one season in 1955, that is the role she is best remembered for! Over the next few years she appeared in a handful of movies and TV shows, including The Beat Generation, Five Gates to Hell, and Five Bold Women. She had several marriages and divorces, and after her career wound down she became a successful painter in Prescott, Arizona. She passed away in 2002 at the age of 73. Important Added Info: Note that this REPRODUCTION still has been personally autographed (signed) by Irish Mccalla (she put 1957 after her name, to indicate the year in which the photo was originally taken). About the Collection this Item Comes From Note that this item was consigned to us by a man who was a major movie memorabilia dealer from the 1980s 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, and over the years he did not re-sell any of the autographed items. Now he has gathered up together all of his autographed items and consigned them to us. So all of the items from this consignor we are auctioning were purchased by this dealer from longtime dealers and collectors, and we feel it is quite likely that the autograph on this item is authentic! Condition: very good to fine. The REPRO is in nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
