The Fastest Gun Alive (1956) starred Glenn Ford as an ex-gunman trying to escape his past. The trio of Dehner, Beery and Crawford came "looking for trouble"! Busy American actor Dehner (1915-1992) had almost 280 movies and TV shows, from 1941 to 1988, on his resume. His arch looks usually consigned him to supporting cast and character roles in movies like He Walked By Night (1948), Scaramouche (1948), Carousel (1956), Slaughterhouse Five (1972), The Boys from Brazil (1978), The Right Stuff (1983) and Jagged Edge (1985). He was a frequent guest star on TV, with recurring roles on The Westerner (1960), The Roaring 20's (1960-1962), The Baileys of Balboa (1964-1965), The Virginian (1963-1969), The Doris Day Day Show (1971-1973), Temperatures Rising (1971-1973), Big Hawaii (1977), Enos (1980-1981), Bare Essence (1983), The Colbys (1986-1987) and War and Remembrance (1988). He was also one of the busiest actors on actor between the mid-1940s and early 1960s, playing the role of Paladin on the radio version of Have Gun, Will Travel and J. B. Kendall in Frontier Gentleman. In 1920, a seven-year-old Beery (1913-1994, born in New York City) made his first screen appearance in Douglas Fairbanks' The Mark of Zorro (1920), which co-starred his dad Noah as Sergeant Garcia. Beery went on appear in over 120 films and TV shows, with his last acting credit on an episode of The Love Boat in 1986, seven decades after The Mark of Zorro. Often seen in Westernsand serials as the sidekick, he had a number of more notable performances in Of Mice and Men (1939), Only Angels Have Wings (1939), Sergeant York (1941), We've Never Been Licked (1943) and Red River (1948). Modern audiences probably know him best as Jim Rockford's father Joseph "Rocky" Rockford on The Rockford Files (1974-1980). His uncle was actor Wallace Beery.  Soiled, toned, and lightly creased. Smudge on the "e" and "r" in Dehner. Ink "'88" (unknown hand) added after "7/23". Tape on verso - repairing 3 minor tears at right edge. Otherwise, fine condition.
