This is an AUTHENTIC HAND SIGNED ORIGINAL Vintage 8"x 10" color lobby card photo of the 2 main cast members in the film "FIRST MONDAY IN OCTOBER" featuring the autographs by WALTER MATTHAU and JILL CLAYBURGH. First Monday in October is a 1981 American comedy-drama film from Paramount Pictures, produced by Paul M. Heller and Martha Scott, directed by Ronald Neame, that is based on the 1978 play of the same name by Jerome Lawrence and Robert E. Lee. The film stars Walter Matthau (for which he was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Actor – Motion Picture Musical or Comedy) and Jill Clayburgh (for which she was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Actress – Motion Picture Musical or Comedy). The cast also co-stars Jan Sterling in her final feature film role.

First Monday in October was originally scheduled for a February 1982 release, but President Ronald Reagan's appointment of Sandra Day O'Connor as the first female Supreme Court justice on July 7, 1981, forced the film's release a month after the presidential nomination, in August 1981.
