ABOUT THE AUTOGRAPH
Zsa Zsa Gabor signed the card in 1968. She was filming an episode for the TV show "Batman." My Aunt and Uncle, who were eager autograph hunters, knew one of the producers and were invited to watch the filming at 20th Century Fox Studios. The producer gave Zsa the card and she signed it as she sat inside a trailer on the set, getting her hair done for the next scene.

ABOUT ZSA ZSA GABOR
Zsa Zsa Gabor (1917-2016) was a Hungarian socialite and actress. Her sisters were actresses Eva and Magda Gabor. She was born in Budapest and made her stage debut at the age of 15. Zsa Zsa was "Miss Hungary" in 1936. After arriving in the U.S. in 1941, she became more famous for her many jewels and husbands, including wealthy hotel owner Conrad Hilton and actor George Sanders.  When she received expensive gifts from General Rafael Trujillo, one U.S. Congressman called her "the most expensive courtesan since Madame Pompidour."

As one of America's most glamorous women, more of Zsa Zsa Gabor's movie roles were "decorative." She had an active career in Hollywood, long before she did the "Batman" TV series in the 1960s. But fans still recognize her today for her role as Minerva in the final season of "Batman." With the appearance of actress Gabor, Minerva's glamorous character and Zsa Zsa became  the TV series' "special guest villain"(and the last)  before it was cancelled in 1968.  During this period, she was also a feisty & frequent guest on TV-talk shows, along with Milton Berle, Jack Paar, Johnny Carson, David Letterman and others. She became a regular guest on Bob Hope's specials, Dean Martin's Roasts, "Hollywood Squares," "Rowan and Martin's Laugh In." She also appeared in other TV shows like "Mister Ed," "Gilligan's Island," "Bonanza," "Love Boat" and "Knot's Landing.

Her more serious acting credits include: "Lovely to Look At" (her first movie) and "Moulin Rouge," both in 1952. She appeared in "Touch of Evil" (directed by Orson Welles) and the cult-film "Queen of Outer Space," both in 1958. Other films include "Won Ton Ton, the Dog Who Saved Hollywood," (1976), and did "cameo" appearances in "A Nightmare on Elm Street 3," "Dream Warriors," "The Beverly Hillbillies," (1993), "A Very Brady Sequel," (1996) and "Happily Ever After" (1990), in which she did the voice of an animated character. She was memorable as herself in "The Naked Gun 2 1/2- The Smell of Fear" in 1991.

Zsa Zsa Gabor thrived on publicity and epitomized what we recognize today as "celebrity." She became better known for her many marriages, personal appearances, her "dahlink" catchphrase, her actions, gossip, and quotations on men, rather than her film career. The press focused on the sibling rivalry with her sister Eva Gabor," who was a popular star on the TV series "Green Acres." In 1989, she was convicted of slapping a police officer during a traffic stop in Beverly Hills and enjoyed the press coverage . She spent three days in jail and had to do 120 hours of community service. The infamous incidents contributed to her becoming one of the most all-time recognizable of Hollywood celebrities, and sometimes ridiculed as a result. After her life ended in 2019 at the age of 99, she'd spanned 2 continents, 9 husbands and 11 decades in the public eye.

ABOUT HER ROLE "Minerva" in the TV Series of "Batman."
Zsa Zsa Gabor was fond of her glamorous role at "Minverva." Her appearance in the "camp" and "quirky" TV show was a favorite of the fans. The plot revolved around Minerva using her "Deepest Secret Extractor," which was disguised as a piece of equipment at her mineral spa. She used it to discover where her wealthiest customers hid their valuables. With that info, Minerva was able to pull off a string of robberies. When Batman and Robin's investigate her, Batman's butler Alfred goes undercover to help foil her criminal operations.
