Signed Paper attached to title page "Dorothy Lamour" ...Her exotic good looks and shoulder length brunette hair got her a screen test for the "Jungle Princess", a film that Paramount had put on the shelf after discarding 250 tests for the leading role of Ulah. Needless to say Lamour won the role and and got top billing over Ray Milland in her very first picture......The sarong, she reluctantly wore in the film, and in the subsequent John Ford Classic "The Hurricane" became her trademark and followed her throughout her career as one of Hollywood's top glamour girls.Only when Bing Crosby and Bob Hope finally try to bounce Dottle off the Road to. . . shows does she wax cautiously caustic. We get an occasional peek at the perils of al fresco stardom--in Hurricane, she and Jon Hall were battered by twelve airplane engines, dry leaves, sulphur, and two thousand gallons of water. And after a hairdresser doused her with liquid dry cleaner (to expedite the next ""take""), Ray Milland whisked her under a waterfall--an unceremonious dunk that probably saved her eyesight. On the domestic scene, Lamour is unfailingly loyal toward her mother--who shared her band-singing-to-Hollywood-stardom years--and appreciative of second husband William Ross Howard III, a Baltimore socialite and father of her two sons Also listed Ginger Rogers SIGNED, Olivia de Havilland, Jayne Mansfield, Basil Rathbone, Gloria Swanson SIGNED, Vincent Price SIGNED, Harpo Marx, Fay Wray , Bette Davis, Veronica Lake, Billie Burke SIGNED & other Hollywood Items..!
