Anthony Quayle sends a note about some photographs that were signed but the
ink does not show up very well.
Autograph Letter Signed: "Anthony Quayle". 1p, 8¼x7¾. London,
England, 1979 July 29. On Anthony Quayle Ltd. letterhead. To Sy Sussman,
in full: "I've signed the photos, but I'm afraid the ink doesn't show
up very well on that dark background." When Quayle appeared in films
about war and espionage, he performed brilliantly, earning critical acclaim.
And no wonder. Quayle had served as a spy in Albania during World War II. His
war experience primed him well for roles in such productions as The Battle of
the River Plate (1956), The Guns of Navarone (1961), Operation
Crossbow (1965) and 21 Hours at Munich (1976). He went on to perform
in some of the best-known films of all time, many of them historical epics,
including Lawrence of Arabia (1962), The Fall of the Roman Empire
(1964) and Anne of the Thousand Days (1969), in which he earned an
Academy award nomination for his portrayal of Cardinal Wolsey. Quayle also
played major roles in important TV miniseries such as Great Expectations
(1974), Moses the Lawgiver (1975), The Story of David (1976) and
Masada (1981). He was pronounced a knight of the realm in 1985 for his
acting achievements. Fine condition.
