Price: $400.00
JEANETTE MACDONALD
The actress signs her name on a publicity photograph wearing a polka
dotted dress and sporting a bright smile
Photograph signed: "Jeanette MacDonald", in blue ink, Sepia
toned 8x10. Captioned at bottom margin. One of actress/singer Jeanette
MacDonald's (1903-1965) best early films was Monte Carlo (1930) as
she sang "Beyond the Blue Horizon" from the observation car of a moving train.
In 1935, MGM teamed MacDonald with baritone Nelson Eddy in Naughty
Marietta, the first of eight highly popular MacDonald-Eddy film musicals.
Though mercilessly lampooned by comedians, the pair's films were
consummately produced and strove to entertain every member of the film audience,
not merely opera lovers. After I Married an Angel (1942), the singing
team split. MacDonald trained diligently to become a bona fide opera star,
finally making her operatic debut in a 1943 Montreal production of Romeo and
Juliet. She was married to actor Gene Raymand from 1937 until her
death in 1965; curiously, they acted together only once, in 1941's Smilin'
Through. Corners lightly worn and creased. Lightly bowed. Light surface
creases. Otherwise, fine condition.
