Author: WILDE, Cornel (1915-89) Title: Signature / Unsigned Photograph
Description: This leading man reached the height of his popularity in the 1940s, in films such as "A Song to Remember" (for which he was nominated for best actor Oscar) and "The Bandit of Sherwood Forest"; later he produced and directed films, some of which he also acted in ("The Naked Prey"). Large bold signature in black fountain pen, 3 3/4" X 1½", n.p. n.y. [1962]. Near fine. Wilde's pen skipped initially with the capital "C," which he then wrote over boldly. A super example, particularly choice as it was penned for a greeting card company (California Artists) for reproduction on a planned Christmas card featuring one of Wilde's oil paintings. Accompanied by a circa 1962 5" X 7" black-and-white head-and-shoulders portrait of a broody young Wilde. .
