Offered is a vintage orange-colored knit tunic such as would be worn by Star Trek series star William Shatner, along with a hand signed photo of him. Acquired in New England, I had investigated the possibility of this being a show-worn artifact, which would have been worth perhaps $10,000 in the open market for entertainment memorabilia...

A hard-backed 368 page catalog, almost like a book, of the December 17, 2019 auction of the estate property of Frank Sinatra's first wife, Nancy, featuring many items that belonged to her and Frank during their married life in Toluca Lake, California and Beverly Hills. The catalog is filled with quality photos of everything from the Steinway piano to paintings, cufflinks, books, steamer trunks, down to small knick-knacks...

A decorative original poster from the Preservation Hall Jazz Band of New Orleans, Louisiana, measuring 36" by 24" as framed in black strip behind thin Plexi (making for easy and safe shipping). The piece looks vintage but it appears that the "That's It" album dates to only 2013. The vintage graphics style nevertheless give a vintage, older, circa 1960's or 1970's look. Preservation Hall began in the early 1960's playing traditional jazz to appreciative audiences...

A vintage, circa early 1930's original photograph of early screen actress and Hollywood socialite Marion Davies (1897-1961), bearing the embossed stamp of the photographer at right lower corner, and a stamp from Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer on reverse. The piece measures 12 1/2" by 9 1/2" inside the red mat and 21" by 17" framed. Bull was a prominent portrait and still photographer with the Hollywood studios, head of MGM's stills department for 40 years...

Black and white photo (9 3/4" by 8", 16" by 13 3/4" framed) of Rick "Ricky" Nelson, circa late 1950's, autographed at right and inscribed "To Jill". The signature and inscription are bold and nicely placed at right center. Nelson officially changed his name to "Rick" in 1961, so this might have been signed after that. The framing seems to be circa late 1960's or 1970's. Nelson was born in Teaneck, New Jersey...

A hand signed copy of the 1996 First Edition copy of "Ghost of a Chance", the memoir of pianist and bandleader PETER DUCHIN (1937-), son of the swing musician Eddy Duchin. The younger Duchin led a glittering life in high society during the middle years of the century, and the interesting tales of his privileged upbringing and performance history are detailed in this hard cover book. The book measures 9 1/2" by 7". The original dust jacket is included...

A copy of 1971's bestseller book "The Exorcist", by William Peter Blatty, published by Harper and Row, this copy in dust jacket and **SIGNED** in black marker pen by the author. This may or may not be a first edition, but apparently it is not "first state" even if it is, as the last number on the last page is a "5"...

A PAIR of original glossy black and white photos of actors HURD HATFIELD (1917-1998) and GENE NELSON (1920-1996), circa 1940's, both autographed and inscribed to an as yet unidentified "Wilson", which is the principal reason why I have decided to sell them together (they are also identical sizes and identically framed and matted). The Hatfield has the following inscription at left: "For Wilson--with admiration for his dancing---In friendship--Yours, Hurd Hatfield"...

A copy of the 2011 autobiographical book "Happy Accidents" by comedienne Jane Lynch, dedicated by her to "Anthony" in marker and signed boldly on that page as well. This is an autobiography of the tall blonde actress and tv personality, addressing, among other topics, her life as a gay woman. The book is clean and fresh, just slight wear to top front edge of dust jacket. Measures 9 1/2" by 6 1/4" by 3/4".

A poster from 1984 advertising Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer's documentary "That's Dancing", which explored the history of dancing in the movies, SIGNED AND DEDICATED "To Merton Shapiro Best Wishes Gene Kelly" in white at lower right. Gene Kelly (1912-1996) was a major American dancer and choreographer, from the late 1930's through his death in 1996...

Movie promotional poster for 1995's film "The American President" starring Michael Douglas and Annette Bening, directed by Rob Reiner, AUTOGRAPHED in gold marker by both Douglas and Reiner. The poster, 41" by 26 1/4", is currently shrink wrapped (not framed, but possibly "museum mounted" if a reverse gallery label for "Museum Mount" gallery be an indicator)...

A classic 9" by 7" black and white photo of George Burns holding a cigar, an impish grin on his face, inscribed in yellow (or ink that has faded to yellow) "Best, George Burns" at lower left. Burns (1896-1996) was an American actor, singer, and writer whose career in entertainment spanned many, many decades. With the passage of time, the photo has stuck to the glass at upper right and I am afraid to try to remove it. In a simple inexpensive frame.

A classic, circa 1980 or early 1980's photograph of famed American actress and singer BARBARA STREISAND (1942-). I am guessing on the age but she looks to be about 40 or so in the photo, and the permed hair is of that period----and then, there are those fishnets. The piece is signed boldly in blue marker at lower right "Best Wishes/Barbara Streisand". The piece measures 11" by 9" framed. Streisand of course is world-renowned as an entertainer...

A circa early 1960's black and white photo of famous actress Leslie Caron (1931-), the actress appearing very young, with her famous sassy short haircut, inscribed at lower right in somewhat faded ink "Pour George Ghira/Souvenir de/Leslie Caron". The name of the recipient might be "Ghica", or even another variant---difficult to decipher. Caron of course is the actress known for "Gigi", "An American in Paris", and so forth...

Circa early to mid 1960's image of actress Joanne Woodward (1930-), hand signed and inscribed "To Tom Best Wishes Joanne Woodward" in blue marker. The photo (7 1/2" by 9 1/2", 10 1/2" by 12" in simulated wood frame) is I believe a reprint of a sixties image of the actress in her prime, and signed at a later date. Woodward of course was married for fifty years to actor Paul Newman, with whom she appeared in ten films, and with whom she collaborated on many others. Today she is said to be aff...

This is a black and white photo, 7 1/2" by 7", (10 1/4" by 9 1/4" as simply framed), signed by hand, in ink, at lower right "Nelson Eddy". I'm offering it simply as Hollywood or Nelson Eddy memorabilia, as after comparing the signature with others viewable on line, I feel it possible that this was not actually signed by him. Condition is excellent and this is ready to hang on your wall if you are a fan of this singer. Eddy's biography, found on line: "Nelson Ackerman Eddy (June 29, 1901 – ...

A vintage note on Mary Poppins stationery, (6 1/2" by 4 1/2" sheet, and 10 1/2" by 13" framed--no glass), written in brown ink, signed by actress and Hollywood icon JULIE ANDREWS (born 1935), framed along with a circa 1980 photo of her (no glass). The note reads "For Laura--/With love and all good wishes/from/Julie Andrews/"Mary Poppins". The sheet is browned with age and there is a soft diagonal crease in the top portion; in "Julie" there is a small hole in the paper, perhaps created when pen...

An early 20th century reproduction print of famed Belle Epoque actress SARAH BERNHARDT (1844-1923), **HAND SIGNED/INSCRIBED** by her. The signature is in ink at lower right (guaranteed her original ink signature and not printed). The print is after the 1879 etching by artist Jules Bastien-Lepage. This print under magnification has the dot matrix confirming it is a reproduction and not an original etching. The value is in the autograph and inscription. Bernhardt of course was one of the most...
