GEORGE REEVES.  Photograph inscribed and signed: "To Maxwell and Nippy/The best friends we/have/always/George". B/w, 8x10. ©1940, Universal Pictures Co., Inc. Best known for playing the "Man of Steel" on film and on television, George Reeves (1914-1959), born George Bessolo, made his film debut in 1939, the year before this photograph was taken. That year, Reeves played Stuart Tarleton, one of the Scarlett O'Hara's hopeful beaus, in David O. Selznick's Civil War epic, Gone With the Wind. Making an excellent impression in that role, in 1940, the year of this photograph, Reeves was cast in 17 films, including Knute Rockne, All American, Virginia City, The Fighting 69th, 'Til We Meet Again, Pony Express Days and Meet the Fleet. His career took a fateful turn when he was cast as Superman/Clark Kent in 1951's Superman and the Mole Men, a role he reprised in the 1953-1957 television series. On June 16, 1959, Reeves died from a gunshot wound. Mystery still surrounds his death. Lightly creased at blank margins and upper right and lower left background. Tack holes at margins, upper left, lower left and right corners chipped away. Nicked at upper and lower blank edges, soiled at margins. Accompanied by PSA/DNA LOA.
