GENE KELLY
Black and white magazine photograph of Gene Kelly in a scene from
On the Town.
Magazine Photograph signed: "Gene Kelly". B/w, 8¼x9. Neatly
mounted on cardstock. Shown with Frank Sinatra (not signing) in movie still from
On the Town (1949). Actor, director and innovative
dancer/choreographer Gene Kelly (1912-1996)was a major star in
1950s and 1960s MGM musicals, including Singin' in the Rain (1952).
In 1951, he received a special Academy Award "in appreciation of his
versatility as an actor, singer, director and dancer, and specially for his
brilliant achievements in the art of choreography on film". Although Kelly,
along with Fred Astaire, was the most successful song-and-dance man in film
history, his 1952 film marked the peak of his career, and Kelly moved to
Europe to take advantage of tax exemptions. Shortly after he returned to
Hollywood, Kelly starred in Brigadoon (1954). His other films include
Anchors Aweigh (1945; Best Actor Academy Award nomination),
Take Me Out to the Ball Game (1949), An American in Paris (1951),
Marjorie Morningstar (1958), Inherit the Wind (1960), What a
Way to Go! (1964) and Xanadu (1980), and Kelly also hosted and
starred in several TV series and miniseries and made guest appearances on a
number of TV shows from 1954-1984. Slightly worn at lower left corner.
Otherwise, fine condition.
