Scarce vintage black fountain pen signature on a 4x6-inch tan album page, acquired in-person in 1940. In good condition, with a patch of toning to the bottom area. Note that the image of the star shown alongside the scan of the autograph here is not included. The far-too-brief film career of personally troubled German-born stunner Lya Lys included starring roles in films like The Merry Widow (1934), The Great Gambini (1937), Confessions of a Nazi Spy (1939), The Return of Doctor X (1939), and Murder in the Air (1940).
