Stewart (1908-1997, born in Indiana, Pennsylvania) starred in more
recognized masterpieces of the American cinema than any other actor. In
1940, he won the Best Actor Academy Award for The Philadelphia
Story,and he was nominated for Oscars in the same
category for Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939), It's A Wonderful
Life (1946), Harvey (1950) and Anatomy of a Murder (1959).
Stewart, who was awarded an Honorary Academy Award in 1984, also appeared
in You Can't Take It With You (1938), Destry Rides Again (1939),
The Greatest Show on Earth (1952), Rear Window (1954), The
Spirit of St. Louis (1957), Vertigo (1958) and a long list of other
features. It's a Wonderful Life, directed by Frank Capra, was
nominated for four Oscars but was not a box office hit when first released. It
has grown steadily in stature, and is now one of the most beloved American
films, a Christmas TV staple. It was chosen for inclusion in the Library of
Congress' National Film Registry in 1989. Stewart could not have chosen a
more fitting message for a young student. Fine condition.
