MADELEINE CARROLL (1906 – 1987) autograph, hand signed on sale on a vintage album page

The rare autograph of MADELEINE CARROLL (1906 – 1987) hand signed in ink on an album page.

English actress, popular both in Britain and America in the 1930s and 1940s. At the peak of her success in 1938, she was the world's highest-paid actress.

She is best remembered for her role in Alfred Hitchcock's "The 39 Steps" (1935). She is also noted for largely abandoning her acting career after the death of her sister Marguerite in the London Blitz to devote herself to helping wounded servicemen and children displaced or maimed by the war. She was awarded both the Legion d'Honneur and the Medal of Freedom for her work with the Red Cross. Other well known films included "Sleeping Car" (1933), "I Was a Spy" (1933), "The Prisoner of Zenda" (1937) and "Blockade" (1938).

I specialize in vintage posters, press stills, lobby cards, autographs and associated movie memorabilia. I have many years experience and I hold extensive stocks of mainly English vintage items, especially autographs from the 1930s to 1960s.

All of my items have been sourced from reputable dealers, auction houses and private sellers worldwide. I have no reason to believe that any of my items are not genuine. Most autographs do not have any proof of authenticity, as they were obtained personally by individuals from the stars at events / concerts / stage doors etc.

If there is something you are after, contact me in Etsy messages, and if I have it I will list it for you.
