Subject:  Donna Reed

Size:  Scarce, one-of-a-kind snapshot portrait from the forties, signed by the beautiful Oscar-winning actress (1921-1986) who appeared in several classic films, the most enduring of which is Frank Capra's It's a Wonderful Life (1946).  Other credits include The Courtship of Andy Hardy (1942), The Picture of Dorian Gray (1945), Scandal Sheet (1952), From Here to Eternity (1953), and Ransom! (1956).  Reed was also one of TV's most beloved performers as the star of The Donna Reed Show, which ran from 1958 to 1966.  (Vintage original photograph; true vintage autograph)

Condition:  Fine with some minor handling creases and a soft diagonal bend on the lower left portion; somewhat low contrast to the signature, but quite readable
