Bert Lahr (aka Cowardly Lion of OZ)
Special IN-PERSON autograph

It is on rare occasion that we acquire a great vintage autographed piece with such extraordinary provenance. Back in the late 1950’s a couple walked into the “South of the Border” Motel and Restaurant between North and South Carolina and met Bert Lahr, the “Cowardly Lion Of OZ”. Mr Lahr signed (Un-inscribed) a postcard from the gift shop.

The recipient’s son (who I acquired this from many years ago) also wrote a long detailed letter of provenance about when and where his mother met Bert Lahr, which is included with this piece. Also, included is an original vintage brochure from South of the Border. A collector advised me this alone is a collector’s item and I should sell separately. However, I do not want to break up the package as it is an important part of the provenance.

This has been in my personal collection for several years and I have just now decided to post it on the web site for other collectors to enjoy.

We can also frame and matt this with a nice color photo of the "Cowardly Lion" as shown in the images below. We can matt the autograph with the postcard motel heading and text or we can matt out most all the postcard text. See images below. Note: we ship without glass due to high risk of damage.

Guaranteed Authentic for life.
