ALEXANDER KIRKLAND
The famed actor pens a note to a fan, signed circa 1933. Extremely Rare!
Autograph note signed: "To Helen/Cordially/Alexander Kirkland," in blue ink, 5½x4½ album leaf. Small sepia 1½x1¾ photo of Kirkland affixed in lower right corner. Unknown hand dates the piece October 3,1933. Alexander Kirkland (1901 - death date unknown) had 11 prominent film roles between 1931 and 1934, including Almost Married (1932), for which he also wrote the screenplay. He was seen in A Face in the Crowd (1957), and in a few TV appearances. He wrote several short stories published in national magazines. Kirkland was married to famed striptease artist Gypsy Rose Lee from 1942 to 1944, although the couple separated after three months. After Gypsy's death in 1970, director Otto Preminger acknowledged paternity of Erik Lee Kirkland, the only child by this marriage. Although Forman Brown stated that Kirkland was the model for a leading character in his early gay novel, Better Angel (1933), Kirkland was married two more times. He owned an art gallery in Palm Beach, Florida, and then retired to an estate in Cuernavaca, Mexico, where he was last heard from in the late 1980s. Toned around edges. Otherwise, fine condition.
