Quite uncommon vintage blue felt-tip pen signature on a 4x6-inch pink card, acquired in-person by inveterate autograph hound John Virzi in the late 1960s and decorated with a small Players Directory image. In good condition. Indomitable, sharp-faced character actress Renie Riano played shrill, viper-tongued wives, domestics and society types in a career lasting nearly four decades. She was especially memorable as the cynical maid Effie in the Nancy Drew films, and outspoken Maggie, opposite Joe Yule, in the Bringing Up Father series.
