Date Sold 5/14/2019Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Autographed 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] REPRODUCTION Still (Learn More) Viola Dana (born Virginia Flugrath) was an actress from the 1910s to the 1930s. She is one of three acting sisters. Viola wisely changed her name from Virginia Flugrath, and her sister Shirley Mason also changed her name, but the third sister, Edna Flugrath, did not, which likely did not help her career. She was just 13 when she had her first movie role in a short subject adaptation of "A Christmas Carol", but by 1915, she was a leading star. She married director John Collins that year, but he died in the flu epidemic of 1918. She then had a romantic relationship with famed daredevil pilot Ormer Locklear (who was married), and he died performing a plane stunt in 1920, and Miss Dana was a witness to it. She married two more times and was a star through the 1920s, making a few appearances in 1930s movies. She then retired, except for a brief appearance in the documentary "Buster Keaton: A Hard Act to Follow", made the year after her passing in 1987, at the age of 90. Important Added Info: Note that this REPRODUCTION still has been personally autographed (signed) by Viola Dana! Note that this item was consigned to us by a man who has been a major movie memorabilia dealer from the 1970s on. He purchased the signed photos that were in the inventory of a long running Hollywood memorabilia store, and he has consigned a large number of them to us, and we are auctioning them here, including this item. The store would get items signed when celebrities visited them, and they also bought collections of signed items, but of course only when they were convinced that they were genuine! 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. 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.
