B/w movie still of Crabbe, as Flash Gordon, putting Ming the
Merciless under the gun, signed "Best Wishes And/Best Health
Always"
Inscribed photograph signed "To/Georgia/Best Wishes And/Best
Health Always-/Buster Crabbe". B/w, 9¾x7¾ overall, 9¼x6¾ image, one surface.
Movie still from a Flash Gordon serial. Crabbe (1908-1983, born
Clarence Linden Crabbe in Oakland, California), who won the Gold Medal in the
400-meter swim at the 1932 Olympic games, went on to star in over 100 adventure
films, many set in outer space (most as Flash Gordon), and the Wild West (as
Billy "the Kid" Carson). In 1933, Crabbe also starred as Tarzan in the
Principal Pictures 16-part serial film. Ironically, in winning his Olympic
medal, Crabbe had broken the record set by MGM's rival Tarzan, Johnny
Weissmuller. Lightly toned and creased. Errors in negative were reproduced
in photo. Otherwise in fine condition.
