Auction History Result 1a615 VIRGINIA MAYO signed 8.25x10 still '49 full-length in sexy sparkling dress by Bert Six! Date Sold 8/14/2014 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) Virginia Mayo (born Virginia Clara Jones) was an actress from the 1940s to the 1990s. At 17, she was a member of the St. Louis Municipal Opera, and she was signed to a contract by Samuel Goldwyn, but she was far from an overnight success! David O. Selznick gave her a screen test, but did not think she had a future in films, and it was not until years later in the early 1940s that she finally got some good roles. But once she had success, she hung onto it for a long time, continuing to have good parts through the 1950s! Some of her mostly Warner Bros. movies include: The Best Years of Our Lives, White Heat, Wonder Man, Backfire, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, and A Song Is Born. She passed away in 2005 at the age of 84. Important Added Info: Note that this still has been personally autographed (signed) by Virginia Mayo! Also note that this still measures 8 1/4" x 10" [21 x 25 cm]. 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: good. There are many faint creases and some scuffs scattered throughout the still, a tiny tear in the right of the top border, and the signature is slightly smudged at the bottom.
