A white 6 x 4 card signed in person October 29th 1964 by American film actress Jane Russell (1921-2011), one of Hollywood's biggest sex symbols in the 1940s and 1950s. In 1940, Russell was signed to a seven-year contract by film mogul Howard Hughes and made her motion picture debut in The Outlaw (1943), a story about Billy the Kid that went to great lengths to showcase her voluptuous figure. Although the movie was completed in 1941, it was not released until 1943 as there were problems with the censorship board over the way her ample cleavage was displayed. During that time she was kept busy doing publicity and became something of a star before anyone had seen her act. With measurements of 38D-24-36 and standing 5'7" (97-61-91 cm and 1.7 meters), Russell was more statuesque than most of her contemporaries. Her favourite co-star Bob Hope once introduced her as "the two and only Jane Russell." Howard Hughes said, "There are two good reasons why men go to see her. Those are enough." A publicity still for the movie showed her lying on a pile of straw, her blouse stretched tight across her voluptuous breasts, with her left hand holding a pistol. The image was a popular pin-up photo with servicemen during World War II. She went on to perform in an assortment of movie roles. She played Calamity Jane opposite Bob Hope in The Paleface (1948) and Mike "the Torch" Delroy opposite Hope in another western comedy, Son of Paleface (1952), Dorothy Shaw in the hit film Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953) opposite Marilyn Monroe and was in two movies opposite Robert Mitchum, His Kind of Woman (1951) and Macao (1952). Other co-stars include Frank Sinatra and Groucho Marx in the comedy Double Dynamite (1951); Victor Mature, Vincent Price and Hoagy Carmichael in The Las Vegas Story (1952); Jeff Chandler in Foxfire (1955); and Clark Gable and Robert Ryan in The Tall Men (1955).
