H. Crane (1845-1928, born in Leicester, Massachusetts) was a stage actor
who made his debut during the American Civil War but lived long enough to
appear, and even star, in silent-era movies. Crane debuted in Donizetti's
Daughter of the Regiment (1963) in Utica, New York in 1863 and scored a big
success a decade later as Le Blanc the Notary in the burlesque Evangeline (1873).
He specialized in eccentric characters; out of his 27 Broadway appearances, three
were in the title role of the comedy David Harum (1915), a role he created on
the “Great White Way” Midtown Manhattan area of Broadway. Crane later
reprised the role in the 1915 film adaptation of the play. It was the first of five
film appearances for Crane, which including a starring role in the Buster Keaton
comedy The Saphead (1920). Creased and toned. Otherwise, fine condition.
