^Lot 1326 Rita Hayworth

Early vintage matte-finish 5 x 7 photo of Hayworth from early in her career, signed in fountain pen with her real name, “Sincerely, Rita Cansino.” In fine condition, with a couple trivial corner tip and edge dings. The actress, who appeared in a number of small screen roles under her birth name, Margarita ‘Rita’ Cansino, at Fox beginning in 1935, adopted her familiar stage name (adapted from her mother’s maiden name) soon after her move to Columbia in 1937.
