[Charles Agvent]

1.  ASTAIRE, Fred. SIGNED PHOTOGRAPH. Handsome 8" x 10" photograph  of
a  smiling  Astaire in a suit SIGNED by him on a light portion of  the
photo.  One  of the most popular entertainers of his  time,  certainly
the  most  famous  dancer,  Astaire is best known for  his  many  film
appearances,  especially  teamed with Ginger Rogers, such as  TOP  HAT
(1935)  with music by Irving Berlin. Very slight discoloration to  top
half. Near Fine                                                $250.00

2.  ASTAIRE,  Fred.  SIGNED PHOTOGRAPH. Nice 8" x  10"  photograph  of
Astaire  and  Ginger  Rogers  dancing SIGNED by  Astaire  on  a  light
portion  of  the  photo. One of the most popular entertainers  of  his
time,  certainly the most famous dancer, Astaire is best known for his
many  film appearances, especially teamed with Ginger Rogers, such  as
TOP  HAT (1935) with music by Irving Berlin. This image is from FLYING
DOWN  TO  RIO,  their  first film together. Tape marks  on  verso  not
affecting the side with image. Near Fine                       $250.00

3.  MacMURRAY,  Fred. SIGNED PHOTOGRAPH. Fine 8" x 10"  photograph  of
the  well-loved  actor circa his "My Three Sons" days.  INSCRIBED  "To
Mr./Sincerely"  and  SIGNED by MacMurray. He apparently did  not  know
what  surname to write so left it blank after "Mr." In addition to his
popular  television  role,  MacMurray  also   starred  in  many  films
including  DOUBLE INDEMNITY and Disney's THE ABSENT-MINDED  PROFESSOR.
MacMurray  was  so popular that he served as the model for  the  title
character  in the popular classic comic book "Captain Marvel."  Slight
crimping at corners outside of image. About Fine               $100.00

4.   STEWART,  Jimmy.  SIGNED  PHOTOGRAPH.   Superb  8"  x  10"  color
photograph  head  shot of perhaps America's favorite actor  SIGNED  as
James  Stewart  in  silver marker. Star of "It's  A  Wonderful  Life,"
"Harvey,"  and  many other films, this photo was likely taken  in  the
50s or 60s and printed later. Fine                             $150.00
