Evelyn Keyes - 16693

American actress. Keyes has appeared in many films, including Union Pacific (1939), Here Comes Mr Jordan (1941), The Jolson Story (1946) and The Seven Year Itch (1955). She is, however, most famous for her portrayal of Scarlett O'Hara's sister, Suellen, in the great Gone With The Wind (1939). Keyes' last major film was Around The World in Eighty Days (1956). Following her marriage to bandleader Artie Shaw in 1957 she retired from show business, making only the occasional appearance thereafter. This shows what a major Hollywood photographer (in this instance, Ned Scott* of Columbia Pictures) can do when asked to produce a "cheesecake" photograph of an actress. It's an original vintage 1940s black and white publicity photograph (8" x 10"), showing Evelyn Keyes' stunning figure to best advantage. Gorgeous! The actress has signed and inscribed this ("To George, Best Wishes, Evelyn Keyes") in blue ink across a clear area of the image. In very good condition. * Ned Scott (1907-1964) Stills and portrait photographer for Columbia Pictures from 1945 to 1948. He shot an estimated 50,000 frames a year during this period, his most prolific.
