American juvenile actress (1958–1976) best known for her role as Buffy on the popular television series Family Affair. After the series ended, and with her career at a standstill—she auditioned unsuccessfully for the role in The Exorcist that went to Linda Blair—Jones was sent to juvenile hall as a runaway, failed to finish high school, and fell in with dubious company. She died in her sleep at the age of eighteen from an overdose described by the coroner as the worst he had ever seen. In-person felt tip signature, signed as a child, “Anissa Jones,” on an off-white 5 x 3 card. In very fine condition. R&R COA.
