Extremely rare and quite choice vintage signature in black fine-tip pen on a 3x5-inch pink card, affixed to a slightly larger card of the same color, dating to the 1970s or 1980s. In very good condition and ideal for matting with a favorite photograph. Note that the image shown here alongside the signed card is not included. This is one of the only autographs we have ever encountered of patrician beauty Dorothy Tree, who is remembered by horror, sci-fi and fantasy buffs as one of the Count's three undead brides in Dracula (1931). She was elsewhere noteworthy in The Mystery of Mr. Wong (1933) with Boris Karloff, The Dragon Murder Case (1934), The Case of the Howling Dog (1934), Madame Du Barry (1934), The Mysterious Miss X (1939), Confessions of a Nazi Spy (1939), Charlie Chan in City of Darkness (1939), Abe Lincoln in Illinois (1940), The Man Who Lost Himself (1941), Nazi Agent (1942), Hitler-- Dead or Alive (1942), Crime Doctor (1943), The Men (1950), and The Asphalt Jungle (1950).
