Top to bottom: JULIE HARRIS (1925-2013, five-time Tony Award-winning American actress) boldly signs in black ballpoint, adding "To Richard Laade / Best wishes always" above her signature and dating it "July 10, 1968" at upper right; ROBERTA PETERS (1930-2017, American coloratura soprano long affiliated with the Metropolitan Opera) signs hugely in blue ballpoint, dating it "Nov. 1, 1983" at upper right; and MARIA TALLCHIEF (1925-2013, first American major prima ballerina and the first Native American ballerina) signs boldly in black fineline, dating it "3/24/82" at upper right.
