RAY MILLAND
Smiling image, arms folded, in pinstripe suit, inscribed in person to
collector Saul Goodman
Photograph inscribed and signed: "To Saul/many thanks/Ray". B/w, 8x10.
Collector's ink stamp on verso dates signature January 11, 1939. Welsh actor
Ray Milland (1907-1986) spent the 1930s and early 1940s playing light
romantic leads in such films as Next Time We Love (1936); Three Smart
Girls (1936); Easy Living (1937) in which he is especially charming
opposite Jean Arthur in an early Preston Sturges script; and the major in Billy
Wilder's The Major and the Minor (1942) opposite Ginger Rogers.
Milland won an Oscar for his intense and realistic portrait of an
alcoholic in The Lost Weekend (1945). Saul Goodman
(1919-2003), a New York business man by day, pursued his love of film and
theatre in the evening, making friends with many celebrities. While other
autograph seekers offered album leaves, Goodman presented stars with snazzy
photographs, a rarity then, to sign in fountain pen. Light creases and
dings, mainly to right side. Scattered surface marks and rubbing to emulsion.
Otherwise, fine condition.
