Classic Entertainment Autographs

Cat. #001672920: EDITH MASSEY

Extremely rare vintage Odorama scratch-'n'-sniff card, distributed at a screening of John Water's cult classic Polyester (1981), signed and inscribed in black fine-tip pen for a physician in the period of the film: "For Dr. Groll, Love you, Edie Massey." In good condition, with gentle toning. Nobody could resist the charms of John Waters regular Edith "Edie" Massey, with her bulldog kisser, fractured smile, chicken-like voice, hilariously monotone delivery, and superb byplay with Divine! Among her 10 collaborations with Waters, her best roles were the Egg Lady in Pink Flamingos (1972), Aunt Ida Nelson in Female Trouble (1974), Queen Carlotta in Desperate Living (1977), and Cuddles Kovinsky in Polyester (1981). This is just the the fifth example of her autograph we have encountered in over 35 years.
