Vintage matte-finish 8 x 10 photo, signed and inscribed in fountain pen to 1940s–1950s MGM entrance gate security officer Bill Ludlow, “To Bill Ludlow, Best wishes, Elizabeth Taylor.” Taylor has apparently traced over the first name in the inscription, and added his last name as well. Scattered adhesive remnants and toning, primarily to borders and background, with a small spot of toning over last name of signature, a few surface marks to background, and aforementioned addition to the inscription, otherwise fine condition. From around the time of National Velvet, this photo is one of the earliest signed Taylor photos we have ever seen. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
