WALTER HUSTON
Black and white publicity photograph of Walter Huston wearing a suit
and tie.
Photograph inscribed and signed: "To George/My Regards/Walter
Huston". B/w, 8x10.Canadian-born actor Walter Huston (1884-1950),
born Walter Houghston, launched his movie career with Gentlemen of the
Press (1929), and spent the 1930s playing everything from a Mexican bandit
to President Lincoln. In the 1938 Broadway musical comedy, Knickerbocker
Holiday, Huston, in the role of a 17th century New Amsterdam Governor,
achieved theatrical immortality with his poignant rendition of the show's top
tune, "September Song". Throughout the 1940s, he offered a gallery of
memorable screen portrayals, from the diabolical Mr. Scratch in All That
Money Can Buy (1941) to George M. Cohan's father in Yankee Doodle
Dandy (1942). Still, it was only after removing his expensive false teeth
and trading his fancy duds for a dusty hobo's outfit that the actor won an
Academy Award for his portrayal of the cackling old prospector Howard in
The Treasure of the Sierra Madre (1948), directed by his son, John
Huston. Lightly worn at edges. Fine condition.
