Part of Hollywood scriptwriter Marguerite Roberts collection.

Marguerite Roberts (September 21, 1905 – February 17, 1989) was an American screenwriter, one of the highest paid in the 1930s. After she and her husband John Sanford refused to testify in 1951 before the House Un-American Activities Committee, she was blacklisted for nine years and unable to get work in Hollywood. She was hired again in 1962 by Columbia Pictures. This item was part of a large collection of vintage Hollywood signatures, all collected in person at various locations frequented by the stars of the day in and around Hollywood, by Marguerite Roberts (info on her available on google/Wikipedia). Once she had the signatures, she cut them from autograph books and stuck in larger albums / scrapbooks. The collection was sold at Auction in 2005.
