"The One Man Company: Writer, Director, Cameraman", RALPH STAUB
(1898-1969) directed over 200 films between 1930 and 1962. The vast
majority of these were from Columbia Picture's durable Screen
Snapshots, a series of one-reel behind-the-scenes documentaries, on
which he often served as producer, writer, editor and even narrator. Staub's
work on Screen Snapshots earned him two of his three back-to-back Oscar
nominations for Best Short Subject, One-Reel between 1944 and 1945. Staub
also directed a number of comedies and westerns, including three of Monogram's
Renfrew of the Royal Mounted movies in 1940: Danger Ahead,
Yukon Flight and Sky Bandits. MICKEY ROONEY, JR., born
Joseph Yule III in 1945, is the eldest son of actor Mickey Rooney,
although you'd never know it by looking. At 6-feet-1-inch, Mickey, Jr.
towers over his father by almost a foot. He was born to his father's second wife
Betty Jane Rase. With brother Tim, Mickey, Jr. broke into show biz as one of
the first Mouseketeers on The Mickey Mouse Club in 1955. He has three
other acting credits to his name: Hot Rods to Hell (1957), Honeysuckle
Rose (1980) and the TV movie Beyond the Bermuda Triangle (1975).
Lightly toned and creased. Show-through touches all signatures. Discoloration
from photo and pencil mark touches Rooney's signature. Rooney's note, but not
signature, cut off at left edge. Random ink stains. Otherwise in fine
condition.
