Subject:  Jean Simmons and Stewart Granger

Size:  2.5x3.5

Description:  Exceptionally scarce fifties snapshot portrait inscribed by Granger and signed by both of the then-married British-born stars, who had great international careers.  Simmons (1929-2010), as talented as she was beautiful, appeared in several classics including David Lean's Great Expectations (1946), Hamlet (1948), So Long at the Fair (1950), Angel Face (1953), The Robe (1953), Guys and Dolls (1955), Stanley Kubrick's Spartacus (1960), and Elmer Gantry (1960).  Granger (1913-1993), a major leading man of the fifties, excelled in adventures and dramatic films such as King Solomon's Mines (1950), Scaramouche (1952), The Prisoner of Zenda (1952), North to Alaska (1960), and the generally underrated film noir The Secret Partner (1961).  Simmons is very rare in vintage signed photos, as most of her available autographs are from later years.  (Vintage original photograph; true vintage autographs)

Condition:  Very Fine Minus with light surface wear; slightly low contrast to Simmons' surname
