CHARLES COBURN
The Academy Award-winning actor signs his name in black ink
Signature: "Charles Coburn" in black ink. 3½x2 paper affixed
to 5½x4½ paper leaf. Small 1x1 photo also affixed. Broadway actor, producer and
director Charles Coburn (1877-1961), born Charles Douville Coburn, did
not appear in his first feature film (Of Human Hearts) until 1938, when
he was 61. In 1940, he portrayed Dr. Henry Gordon, who unjustly amputated Drake
McHugh's (Ronald Reagan) legs in Kings Row, resulting in the future
President's greatest screen line (and title of his first autobiography):
"Where's the rest of me?" Coburn was nominated for three Academy Awards for
Best Supporting Actor (1941, The Devil and Miss Jones; 1943, The
More the Merrier; 1946, The Green Years). He won in 1943 for his
portrayal of elderly Benjamin Dingle, a likable business executive forced by
the wartime housing shortage to share a Washington D.C. apartment with Jean
Arthur and Joel McCrea. Creased throughout. Slightly soiled. Stickers affixed
throughout. Pencil marks in bottom margin. Left edge irregularly cut. Otherwise,
fine condition.
