Signed release form allowing newspaper use of his name and image
Document signed: "R. A. Milland", 1 page, 8½x11. New York, N.Y., 1948 March 12.
Release form authorizing the Chicago Tribune - New York News Syndicate and its licensees to
use his name and image for editorial and promotion purposes, excluding commercial
advertising. Ray Milland (1907-1986), born Reginald Alfred John Truscott-Jones, in Wales,
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). The newspapers would
have many occasions to use Ray Milland's name in 1948. He appeared that year in four feature
films: So Evil My Love, The Big Clock, Sealed Verdict and Miss Tatlock's Millions. He
remained active in films until the year before his death. Small fold at top right and bottom left
corner. Pencil note at top left corner and lower middle (not affecting signature). Otherwise,
fine condition.
