FESS PARKER
The actor is shown in a black and white publicity photograph for the
1957 film Old Yeller
Photograph signed: "Fess Parker", B/w 8x10. In the 1957
film Old Yeller Fess Parker (1924-2010) played the character Jim
Coates. He began his film career with a one-scene bit part as a terrified
witness in the 1954 horror classic Them that brought him to the attention
of Walt Disney. Disney then cast him as Davy Crockett in a series of
phenomenally successful TV specials. The theme song of his 1955 Davy
Crockett television film, Davy Crockett, King of the Wild Frontier, was
recorded not only by Parker but later by such diverse artists as Eddy Arnold,
Louis Armstrong, Tennessee Ernie Ford, Burl Ives and Mannheim Steamroller. Davy
Crockett souvenirs, like this trading card, were very popular. Parker remained
on the Disney lot until 1959, starring in such films as The Great Locomotive
Chase (1956), Westward Ho, the Wagons! (1957), Old Yeller
(1957) and Light in the Forest (1958). He later recreated yet another
frontier hero, starring on TV's Daniel Boone from 1964-1969. Parker
made appearances on various programs but retired from the industry in 1974. Fine
condition.
