BORIS KARLOFF
Moody b/w publicity photo of a Karloff in a coat and suit-and-tie,
caught in a single light and looking over his shoulder. Signed "Sincerely"
by him in blue ink.
Photograph signed "Sincerely/Boris Karloff" in blue ink. B/w,
4¾x6¾, printed on cardstock. Karloff (1887-1969, born William Henry Pratt
in Camberwell, London, England) was an English actor. Karloff had originally
wanted a career in the diplomatic service, but he instead became one of
Hollywood's most frightening actors. In 1931, he starred as the monster
in the original Frankenstein, a role that had been turned down by
Bela Lugosi. Karloff, who also scared the daylights out of movie-goers in the
films The Mummy (1932) and The Ghoul (1933), also hosted and
occasionally starred in the TV series Thriller. He gave one of the
best of his many film performances in the 1968 Peter Bogdanovich film
Targets, in which he virtually played himself - an aging star of
horror movies. Lightly toned, soiled, silvered and bowed. Parts of signature
have low contrast, and pen skipped while signing it, but it is still legible.
Light scratches on image. Otherwise in fine condition.
