PAUL PICERNI
Vintage sepia photo (5x7) of a very young Paul Picerni donning a
sharp suit and tie. Signed with a note to a fan.
Autograph note on photograph signed: "To Kathleen/It's good
to/know that I/have a fan and friend such/as you rooting for me./Thanks
sincerely/Paul Picerni", in black ink. Sepia, 5x7. Paul Picerni
(1922-2011) earned a Distinguished Flying Cross flying bombers in the CBI
Theater of World War II, and his early post-war films were mostly
war-themed (Twelve O'Clock High, To Hell and Back). An
exception was his role as hero of the Vincent Price 3-D horror film House
of Wax (1953). He appeared in multiple TV Westerns and detective dramas
of the 1950s before finding the role for which he is best remembered: Federal
Agent Lee Hobson, Robert Stack's #2 man on The Untouchables
(1960-1963). He comes from a family of stuntmen, including brother
Charlie Picerni, who started as Paul's double on The Untouchables and
went on to be stuntman/stunt coordinator on Die Hard and Lethal
Weapon films. Paul Picerni, married to over 60 years to former ballet dancer
Marie Mason, was half-time announcer for the LA Rams for over 30 years,
and Mayor of Tarzana, California (1965-1968). Pencil note (unknown hand)
on verso. Fine condition.
