Italian-born actress (1932-1971) who in her American cinematic debut won a Golden Globe Award for her role in the 1951 film Teresa. Vintage glossy 8 x 10 photo of the lovely actress in a saintly studio pose, signed and inscribed in blue ballpoint, "To Sondra, Best wishes! Pier Angeli.” In very fine condition.
Accompanied by a copy of a letter of provenance from the original recipient, Sondra McLean, who as a teenager traveled by train from her hometown in Canada to Los Angeles, California, where she spent two-month-long vacations in the summers of 1954, 1955, and 1956. While staying with her cousin, whose residence was within walking distance from MGM Studios, McLean used the majority of her weekdays staking out the studio parking lot for the arrival and departure of Hollywood celebrities.
