Sophia Loren signed vintage b/w photo. Mounted between 2 colour photos. Loren became an international film star following her five-picture contract with Paramount Pictures in 1958. Among her films at this time were Desire Under the Elms with Anthony Perkins, based upon the Eugene O'Neill play; Houseboat, a romantic comedy co-starring Cary Grant; and George Cukor's Heller in Pink Tights, in which she appeared as a blonde for the first time. In 1960, she starred in Vittorio De Sica's Two Women, a stark, gritty story of a mother who is trying to protect her 12-year-old daughter in war-torn Italy. The two end up gang-raped inside a church as they travel back to their home city following cessation of bombings there. Originally cast as the daughter, Loren fought against type and was recast as the mother (actress Eleonora Brown would portray the daughter). Loren's performance earned her many awards, including the Cannes Film Festival's best performance prize, and an Academy Award for Best Actress, the first major Academy Award for a non-English-language performance or to an Italian actress. She won 22 international awards for Two Women. The film was extremely well received by critics and a huge commercial success. Though proud of this accomplishment, Loren did not show up to this award, citing fear of fainting at the award ceremony. Nevertheless, Cary Grant telephoned her in Rome the next day to inform her of the Oscar award. During the 1960s, Loren was one of the most popular actresses in the world and continued to make films in the United States and Europe, starring with prominent leading men. In 1964, her career reached its pinnacle when she received $1 million to appear in The Fall of the Roman Empire. In 1965, she received a second Academy Award nomination for her performance in Marriage Italian-Style. Drawing of Loren by Nicholas Volpe after she won an Oscar for Two Women (1961). Among Loren's best-known films of this period are Samuel Bronston's epic production of El Cid (1961) with Charlton Heston, The Millionairess (1960) with Peter Sellers, It Started in Naples (1960) with Clark Gable, Vittorio De Sica's triptych Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow (1963) with Marcello Mastroianni, Peter Ustinov's Lady L (1965) with Paul Newman, the 1966 classic Arabesque with Gregory Peck, and Charlie Chaplin's final film, A Countess from Hong Kong (1967) with Marlon Brando. Loren received four Golden Globe Awards between 1964 and 1977 as World Film Favorite Female. Approx. overall size 17x12. Good Condition. All signed items come with our certificate of authenticity.

A longtime member of the Rockabilly Hall of Fame, he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as a member of the Blue Caps in 2012. He was an accomplished guitarist who played on several Gene Vincent tracks, including "Lotta Lovin'" and "Say Mama," which Meeks wrote. When the Blue Caps broke up in late 1958, Meeks joined the Tune Toppers, followed by the Champs. He went on to perform with Merle Haggard, Elvis Presley and former Monkee Michael Nesmith. This guitar is sold with a copy of facsimile documentation dating to 1997. Written by Meeks, it states that he sold the guitar to a friend, a Mr. Jackson, for a favourable sum of $2000 and that he was "hurt and disappointed" that Mr Jackson had sold it on. Also included it a facsimile copy of a picture showing Meeks with the guitar, also signed "To Peter Johnson, Keep on Rockin, Johnny Meeks 'Blue Caps' guitar, 6 April '97". It is thought that Meeks made a custom order to have Fender make this guitar for him with an 'A' width maple cap neck
