NIGEL BRUCE
B/w photograph of actor Nigel Bruce in a coat and hat and lighting a pipe, signed "with
my very best wishes" in 1940
Inscribed photograph signed "To Neil/with my very/best wishes/from/Nigel Bruce/1940" in
blue ink. Black ink notations on verso. B/w sepia-toned, 8x9½ overall, 7¼x9¼ image, one
surface. With Basil Rathbone, British actor Bruce (1895-1953) portrayed the famous
crime-solving pair of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. John Watson in 14 films, beginning with
The Hound of the Baskervilles in 1939. For the next six years, their legendary performances
in Sherlock Holmes mysteries such as The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes (1939), Pearl of
Death (1944) and Dressed to Kill (1946) caused them to be symbolically linked with the
detective duo created by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859-1930). After serving in World
War I, Bruce began his acting career performing both in London and on Broadway; he made
his first British film in 1931 and in 1934 began work in Hollywood. His movie credits include
Treasure Island(1934), Rebecca(1940) and Hong Kong(1951). Lightly toned, creased
and bowed. Rounded and worn corners, with paper loss in top corners. Mounting remnants on
verso (no show-through). Ink notes (unknown hand) on verso. Otherwise in fine condition.
