Auction History Result 3z472 STROM THURMOND signed color 8x10 publicity still '90s portrait of the South Carolina Senator! Date Sold 8/7/2011 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Autographed Color 8" x 10" Publicity Still (Learn More) Strom Thurmond was a politician from the 1940s to 2003. He was the Governor and Senator (the longest serving Senator in U.S. history) for South Carolina. He was a well known opponent of integration for many years, which made the revelation late in his life that he had fathered a child with a black African American woman all the more surprising! He passed away in 2003 at the age of 100 from heart failure/ Important Added Info: Note that this still has been personally autographed (signed) by Strom Thurmond! Also note that many celebrities kept multiple 8" x 10" (or smaller) copies of good publicity images of themselves to sign for fans, and also many memorabilia shops sold such copy stills themselves. While they are not original theater-used stills, they are usually excellent clear copies, with a great shot of that celebrity in their heyday, which, when signed by the celebrity, makes for a wonderful framed picture on any fan's wall! Note that this item was consigned to us by an individual who owned a company that made movies and videos with famous celebrities in the 1980s and 1990s. The owner of the company would have the celebrities sign items from their famous films, and sometimes he would find second or third celebrities to autograph an item he already had gotten signed! In addition, he would ask celebrities he came in contact with if they had signed items from other stars that they would sell to him, and he purchased a number of items that way. He also would purchase unsigned items from the famed Larry Edmunds Bookshop in Los Angeles (to have the celebrities sign), and while he was doing that he would also purchase some of their signed items. So all of these autographed items we are auctioning were either obtained in person, obtained from celebrities who obtained them in person, or obtained from the Larry Edmunds Bookshop, and we feel certain that the autograph(s) on this item is authentic! Condition: very good to fine. Learn More about condition grades
