An Autographed Letter (measures 6" x 8 1/2" [15 x 22 cm]) (Learn More) Neil Hamilton was an actor from the 1910s to the 1970s. He was born in 1899, and his good looks got him a job as a teenage shirt model, which led to some film roles. His big break was in D.W. Griffith's "The White Rose" in 1923. He was in a few more Griffith movies and he signed with Paramount and became one of their leading stars in the 1920s and 1930s, and successfully transitioned to being a character actor (including in Tarzan the Ape Man in 1932), and he never had a break in his career, all the way into the 1970s! He is likely best remembered for playing Commissioner Gordon in TV's "Batman"! He passed away in 1984 at the age of 85. Important Added Info: Note that this letter has been personally autographed (signed) by Neil Hamilton! He hand wrote the letter when it was returning a signed photo to Phil Petras (see below), and he commented that Petras' thoughtfulness in sending a return envelope with stamps included made him "one in a million", because obviously, most fans did not do the same! Note that this is one of many items that was consigned to us by legendary Tarzan collector Phil Petras. Mr. Petras was one of the greatest Tarzan fans ever, and he became good friends with several of the actors who played Tarzan, and over many decades, starting in the 1970s, he would meet with actors and actresses who had appeared in Tarzan movies, sometimes on the sets of films, and sometimes at fan gatherings. Prior to his recent passing, he consigned most of his collection to us, and we are currently auctioning many of his autographed items, sometimes from actors who played Tarzan or Jane, and sometimes from actors who appeared in one or more Tarzan movies (but the items we are auctioning may or may not be from their Tarzan films). Mr. Petras naturally did not have "certificates of authenticity", but we feel certain that the autograph on this item, and every other item we are currently auctioning from his collection, is surely authentic! As is true of all the signed items we are currently auctioning, we give every buyer 30 days in which to review what they purchased and they can return any item as long as it is within 30 days of the end of the auction. On non-signed items, we give a "lifetime guarantee" on everything we auction, but on signed items, we give the above modified guarantee of 30 days after the auction closes. Condition: very good.
