All items offered are genuine release (usually 1st), old, cinema movie items and so had a 'life' before sale, so unlikely ever to be mint.

Note on images: I am no professional photographer and light sources and reflections may appear on the image that are errors and clearly not on the originals

This item:  A PRIME COLLECTABLE   A very rare item. Noel Willman (1918 - 1988) was mainly a serious stage actor and consequently his signature is generally scarce, with the odd example showing up on autograph pages (I have one up on eBid for sale). He made some movies and, of course, a small number were Hammer films. His most famous Hammer role was as Dr. Ravna in Hammer's Kiss of the Vampire. On offer here is a vintage US publicity still from that movie with a large, bold Noel Willman ink signature on a Hammer image. In my decades of collecting and even asking various UK autograph dealers for a Willman signed photo from Kiss of the Vampire, I have never encountered it once, nor had they one on offer.   Any signature by Willman is rare on any Hammer material and such a piece is a most desirable addition to any Hammer collection, especially in his most famous Hammer role and signed showing him on a vintage image as Ravna.  Very Rare 

Size:             8.00 x 10.00 inches approx. 

Condition: (Range from Fine – Very Good – Good – Poor with ++ to - - for further differentiation) :      Very Good ++:     very good corners and edges  with minor wear; a slight smudge to the 'oe' of Noel. (see photos for further detail; feel free to ask for specific detail.) 

POST & PACKAGING: all items are securely packaged, for as a collector myself I appreciated the need for secure packaging and all materials used are new. Posting / shipping depends on the item value and under £10.00 1st class post will be used; for items over this amount a tracked system will be used for both UK and international postings / shipping.
