Uncommonly early vintage inscribed black fountain pen signature on a 4x6-inch light green album page, acquired in-person by an indefatigable New York City-based autograph hound in the 1930s, at the very onset of her acting career. In good condition. Classy Nancy Kelly was nominated for an Academy Award for the cult horror flick The Bad Seed (1956), in which her melodramatic acting proved the essence of high camp. She was elsewhere noteworthy in Jesse James (1939), One Night in the Tropics (1940) and Tarzan's Desert Mystery (1943).
