LOIS WILSON. Photograph signed: "Most sincerely/Lois Wilson". B/w, 8x10 overall, image 4½x6½ (one surface). Lois Wilson (1894-1988) was a film star of the silent era. Her screen debut coincided with Boris Karloff's (Dumb Girls of Porticis, 1916). Her first starring role was in What Every Woman Knows (1921). She made many Westerns, including The Covered Wagon (1923), the first epic film Western. While on western locations, she became a lifelong advocate for the interests of Native Americans and used her skills as an amateur photographer to film the last cattle drive in the US (1924). She portrayed Daisy Buchanan in the first screen version of The Great Gatsby (1926). Very choosey about her roles, Wilson appeared less on screen less often in the era of sound. She did play Shirley Temple's mother in Bright Eyes (1934) and made her last feature film in the Ronald Reagan vehicle The Girl from Jones Beach (1947). She continued stage acting, and appeared in TV soap operas of the 1950s (The Guiding Light, The Edge of Night). Fine condition.
