A Vintage Autographed Hardcover Book (measures 6 1/2" x 9 1/4" [17 x 23 cm]; 270 pages) (Learn More) Chuck Norris is a martial arts expert turned actor from the 1960s to the present. He held numerous karate titles between 1964 and 1974, and he trained many celebrities, including Steve McQueen, Priscilla Presley, and The Osmonds. In 1972, he played opposite Bruce Lee in Way of the Dragon (released in the U.S. as "Return of the Dragon"), including their memorable long battle to the death. He then caught the acting bug and became a top action star! Some of his roles include: Invasion U.S.A, The Delta Force, Missing in Action, and TV's "Walker, Texas Ranger". He appeared on the Total Gym Workout infomercials with his wife that have aired endlessly. His legendary "toughness" has spawned a zillion "Chuck Norris jokes" ("When the Boogeyman goes to sleep at night he checks his closet for Chuck Norris."; "Chuck Norris once roundhouse kicked someone so hard that his foot broke the speed of light, went back in time, and killed Amelia Earhart while she was flying over the Pacific Ocean", and many more!). As of 2021, he is still alive at the age of 81! Important Added Info: Note that this item has been personally autographed (signed) by Chuck Norris! Note that this is the first edition from 2004 in its original dust jacket. We have pictured the front cover, the title page, and the interior page that shows the publishing information, and one or more interior 2-page spreads. Note that this item was consigned to us by an individual who owned a company that made movies and videos with famous celebrities in the 1980s and 1990s. The owner of the company would have the celebrities sign items from their famous films, and he also had correspondence with many famous celebrities which he saved. In addition, he would sometimes ask celebrities he came in contact with if they had signed items from other stars that they would sell to him, and he purchased a number of items that way. He also would purchase unsigned items from the famed Larry Edmunds Bookshop in Los Angeles or from other reputable Hollywood book stores and poster shops (to have the celebrities sign), and while he was doing that he would also purchase some of their signed items. So all of these autographed items we are auctioning were either obtained in person, obtained from celebrities who obtained them in person, or obtained from reputable Hollywood book stores, and we feel certain that the autograph(s) on this item is authentic! Condition: very good to fine. The dust jacket is in a protective sleeve, and there are some scuffs scattered throughout the sleeve. The book is otherwise in nice condition!
