Almost impossible to find vintage green fountain pen signature on a 4x6-inch tan album page, acquired in-person by inveterate autograph hounds Rose and Irene Gellar in the 1950s and decorated with a small magazine image. In good condition, with two minor glue stains away from the writing. After a handful of small television and film roles, including that fof Helen Parnell in Alfred Hitchcock's The Man Who Knew Too Much (1956), fetching Alix Talton landed the plum role of Marge Blain in the cult horror classic The Deadly Mantis (1957). Thereafter, she gradually abandoned her acting career, and her autograph is extremely rare in any format, this being the only one we have ever offered.
