Jessie Matthews (1907-1981), English actress, dancer and singer, c 1930s-c1940s. Signed photograph. Matthews became a big stage star in the late 1920s and 1930s, enjoying some cross-over success in musical films. Her career never quite relaunched after the war though, but she staged a comeback replacing the lead actress in radio soap Mrs Dale's Diary in the 1960s. Her life was blighted by breakdowns of relationships and her own struggles against ill-health and insecurity, and ended, amazingly, buried in an unmarked grave (only rectified after a TV documentary in the late 80s brought this to light).
