Charming vintage 8x10-inch matte-finish portrait, boldly signed and inscribed in white fountain pen in the 1940s, at the height of her Hollywood career. In good condition for its age. Adorable film star and dancer Vera-Ellen still mesmerizes with her onscreen terpsichory with Fred Astaire, Gene Kelly, Danny Kaye, Donald O'Connor, and others, as seen in classic films like On the Town (1949) and White Christmas (1954). She died of the effects of longtime anorexia, aged only 60.
