JOHN RAITT and LOUIS HAYWARD Original portrait of Hayward, drawn by John Raitt, signed by both! Original Art signed: "My sincere gratitude-/sincerely/Louis Hayward", 5½x8½. Pencil drawing also signed by the artist "JRaitt". Louis Hayward (1909-1985, born in Johannesburg, South Africa) was an American actor with over 60 TV shows and movies to his credit between 1932 and 1974. He managed a London nightclub before debuting on the London stage. He co-starred in a number of stage productions, including Dracula and Another Language, before his screen debut in Self-Made Lady (1932). He premiered on Broadway in 1935's Point Verlaine, a performance that which earned him a Hollywood contract. Hayward played rogues and heroes... and sometimes a little of both, with roles as D'Artagnan, Dick Turpin, Captain Blood, Simon Templar in the last of the Saint B-movie series and, in 1954, as producer and star of The Lone Wolf TV series. Hayward served as a Marine during World War II and supervised the filming of the Battle of Tarawa, earning him a Bronze Star for courage under fire. While in college in the 1930s, JOHN RAITT began drawing portraits of famous people. He sent his artwork to each subject with a request that it be autographed and returned to him. Light surface damage at corners. Tape at corners. Four horizontal folds. Otherwise, fine condition.
