GRETA GARBO SIGNED CHECK / Estate of Greta Garbo / RARE autograph signature COA

Description: AN OPPORTUNITY TO ACQUIRE THE SIGNATURE OF HOLLYWOOD ICON GRETA GARBO. Purchase with confidence as this exquisite signature comes from The Estate of Greta Garbo. Signatures by Greta Garbo are rare because she refused to sign autographs or answer the nearly fifteen thousand letters a week she received at the height of her career. Another fact is that Garbo didn't like to write checks because many payees did not cash those checks because they treasured her signature. This exasperated Garbo because these outstanding checks complicated the balancing of her checking account. Consequently, she often had friends pay for purchases then reimbursed them with a check knowing it would be cashed. This check was cashed by her apartment property management provider Douglas Elliman Gibbons & Ives. This light pink (her favorite color) personal bank check (6 inches x 2.75 inches), drawn on The Chase Manhattan Bank of New York, is dated August 1, 1980. It is made out to “D. E.-G. & I.” in the amount of $2,110.67. It has been signed in purple ink along the signature line in confident, flowing, truly beautiful style “Greta Garbo”. The signature is exquisite, and a very fine example of her elegant scripted signature. There are characteristic print and ink cancellation stamps on the front and verso with some very minimal bleed through the check. The check has no tears, creases or folds. In vintage, fine condition, and comes with a Certificate of Authenticity stating that the provenance of this check is from The Estate of Greta Garbo. IMPORTANT - There are other Garbo checks, but many have heavy cancellation stamps over the signature, or other issues that mar their beauty and value. If you desire quality look no further. For any autograph collector or Garbo admirer, this item is a “must have” from one of the greatest actresses (four Academy Award nominations for Best Actress) and a Hollywood legend (1954 Academy Award for “Unforgettable Performances”). Did you know that Garbo was also designated as the most beautiful woman who ever lived by the Guinness Book of World Records? EXCEPTIONAL COLLECTIBLE. ***FREE SHIPPING within the USA!
