YAKIMA CANUTT
Black and white 9½x7¾ publicity photograph of the highly-skilled stuntman riding a
falling horse
Inscribed Photograph signed: "To Arthur with/ my best Wishes/ Yakima Canutt" in black ink,
b/w, 9½x7¾. A rodeo champion, Enos Edward Canutt (1894-1986) was nicknamed "The
Man From Yakima". In 1917, he met Hollywood cowboy star Tom Mix, who recruited
him as a stuntman. Canutt quickly became one of the leading fall guys in the industry, with a
knack for horse spills and wagon wrecks. In the 1939 classic, Stagecoach, Canutt was not
only the stunt supervisor, but he also appeared onscreen to take falls for a cowboy, an
Indian, and even a woman. As he grew older, Canutt's injuries took their toll, but he made a
successful transition from stuntman, to coordinator, to director. In 1966, Canutt received a
special Academy Award for his lifetime of excellence as a stunt performer. His book,
Stuntman, was published in 1979. Canutt was 91 when he died in 1986. Fine condition.
