The more successful half of the Scottish Houston Sisters, actress and
vaudeville performer Renee Houston (1902-1980) toured music halls across
Europe with her sister Billie, basing their comedy on sibling rivalry and
Scottish working life. They proved so popular that the sisters were given
their own musical short in 1926, being one of the few films of the time to
be played along with a soundtrack. After their duo ended, Houston continued to
act, appearing in films such as A Town Like Alice (1956), Anna
Christie (1957), and Three on a Spree (1961). She also appeared
in several television series, and in 1974, published her autobiography. Corners
worn and creased. Toned. Creased throughout. Pencil notes (unknown hand) on
verso. Very slightly silvered. Signature in poor contrast, but legible.
Otherwise, fine condition.
