GONE WITH THE WIND - Archive of 12 Related Signatures, Including Signed Checks/Letters by Gable, Selznick, de Havilland. A dream collection of related signatures of cast and production to Gone With The Wind including a superb signed check with a strong signature by Clark Gable (Rhett Butler), an equally bold signed check by producer, David O. Selznick made payable to actor Charles Boyer dated 1937, two (2) signed letters by Olivia de Havilland (Melanie Hamilton), one actually discussing the disappointing quality of the GWTW merchandise from The Franklin Mint and their advertising brochures, but a second letter is included from Ms. de Havilland for it boasts a large and beautiful signature from the legendary actress. Also included in this collection are signatures/cuts and include Butterfly McQueen (Prissy), Mary Anderson (Maybelle Merriwether), two signatures from Fred Crane (Brent Tarleton, with Crane famously mis-credited in the film as Stuart, George Reeves played Stuart), Eric Linden (amputation scene), William Bakewell (Mounted Officer), a signed card from the great character actor and Oscar winner, Richard Farnsworth (uncredited soldier but definitely in the film.) Finally a very nice 8" x 10" still taken during the motorcade through Atlanta for the premiere of GWTW signed boldly by Ann Rutherford (Carreen O'Hara) as well as a First Day of Issue cover issued Jan. 25, 2006 celebrating Hattie McDaniel (Mammy).
