Today would have been the "Original Lois Lane's" 100th birthday.
Actress Noel Neill was born Noel Darleen Neill on November 25, 1920 in Minneapolis, Minnesota. She was the first live-action Lois Lane in the Kirk Alyn Superman serials. She replaced actress Phyllis Coates in the Adventures of Superman television series in 1953 that starred George Reeves.
She passed away on July 3, 2016.
To commemorate Noel's 100th birthday here are a couple of autographed items she gave me. Both items are larger than my scanner bed, so some parts of the images were not included.

From Wikipedia:
The Golden Boot Awards is an American acknowledgement of achievement honoring actors, actresses, and crew members who have made significant contributions to the genre of Westerns in television and film. The award is sponsored and presented by the Motion Picture & Television Fund.
