Hollywood Color Portraits - Book With 22 Celebrity Signatures. Book by John Kobal (William Morrow and Co., Inc., 1981) with over 70 full-page color photos of Hollywood stars. Twenty-two of the stars signed either on their photo or on the facing page containing their biography. The stars who signed were: Frank Sinatra, Cary Grant, James Stewart, Lucille Ball, Loretta Young, Ann Sothern, Lauren Bacall, Gregory Peck, Elizabeth Taylor, Robert Mitchum, Louis Jourdan, Claudette Colbert, Mickey Rooney, Olivia de Havilland, Joan Fontaine, Roy Rogers, Kirk Douglas, Lizabeth Scott, Glenn Ford, Cyd Charisse, Jane Russell, and Dorothy Lamaour.
The signatures were obtained between 1985 and 1987. Post-It notes are affixed near each signature, noting the place and date the autograph was obtained. Many were signed at famous restaurants such as Chasens, Bistro Gardens, and Spago; others were signed at the Beverly Hilton, at various theatres, and at a book store. The spine of the book is somewhat loose but this does not affect the beautiful photographs and large, bold signatures.
Estimated Value $600 - 800.
