Linen-covered index card, beautifully signed "Sincerely Emil Jannings" in black fountain pen. PSA has graded the signature GEM MINT 10. Jannings (born Theodor Friedrich Emil Janez) was a German actor and is best known today as the first actor to win an Academy Award for Best Actor, which he received in 1929 for his roles in the films "The Way of All Flesh" and "The Last Command." The index card (5x3.25") is unevenly toned from having once been matted and framed, and displays paper residue on the reverse. EX. Accompanied by a vintage black-and-white publicity photo of Jannings. The linen-backed photo (8x10") displays several corner and border creases and is in Very Good condition overall. Full LOA from PSA.
