Highly scarce vintage 8x10-inch black and white 1952 publicity portrait of the actress who would later be President Ronald Reagan's first lady, boldly signed in black fountain pen in the 1950s.  In very fine condition.  Lovely Nancy Davis had roles in Portrait of Jennie (1948), Doctor and the Girl (1949), East Side, West Side (1949), The Next Voice You Hear... (1950), The Dark Wave (1956), and Hellcats of the Navy (1957).  She is remembered by horror, sci-fi and fantasy buffs for her starring role as Janice Cory in the cult favorite Donovan's Brain (1953), which she was filming at the time she signed this photo.  This is the first one we have ever offered.
