Taylor, Elizabeth (b. 1932). Actress. At the tender age of 10, Taylor made her screen debut and was quickly signed to MGM. A string of films followed, notably National Velvet, and the actress turned from adorable little girl to one of the world's most beautiful women. Though she was nominated for several Academy Awards in her early career, Taylor did not win an Oscar until the 1960 film Butterfield 8. With eight failed marriages, Taylor now concentrates on raising funds for AIDS research.

Signed Photo ("Elizabeth Taylor"). Color, 8 x 10", n.p., n.d. Inscribed in blue ink, "Best wishes". Handsomely matted and framed with a Whitman's sampler advertisement featuring an image of the violet-eyed beauty to an overall size of 15½ x 29½". In very fine condition.

The sultry star emphasizes her pouty lips in this photo which she has simply signed.
Estimated Value $250 - 350.

 
Realized $173
