An Autographed 2 1/2" x 3 1/4" Page from an Album (Learn More) Richard Dix (born Ernest Carlton Brimmer) was an actor from the 1920s to the 1940s. He was a major star at Paramount in the 1920s and 1930s. Some of his movies include: Cimarron (nominated for the Best Actor Academy Award for this film), The Vanishing American, Redskin, and The Ten Commandments. He passed away in 1949 at the age of 56. His son, Robert Dix, was an actor who was just 14 when his dad passed away, and Robert passed away in 2018 at the age of 83. Important Added Info: Note that this album page has been personally autographed (signed) by Richard Dix, and measures 2 1/2" x 3 1/4". Our consignor had intended to frame this album page together with an original still of Mr. Dix, but he never did that. The winner of this auction will receive both the signed album page and the original still. About the Collection this Item Comes From Note that this item (and 27 others we are auctioning this week, each in its own auction) was consigned to us by a man who was a major movie memorabilia dealer in the 1970s and 1980s. During that time, he was approached by an elderly man named Sterling H. Bond, who had collected autographs for many years (starting in the early 1930s), and who sold the dealer his entire collection. Bond had tracked down many important Hollywood celebrities and obtained autographed items (often personalized to him), and he also had autographs from celebrities who were not in the film business (including famous politicians!). The dealer was so impressed with this collection that rather than sell it item by item, he began collecting autographs himself, sending celebrities items by Registered Mail which they then autographed and returned to him! He also purchased a few autographed items from top autograph dealers of the 1970s and 1980s. Now, decades later, the dealer has consigned these autographed items to us. So all of these 28 autographed items we are auctioning were either obtained by long time collector Sterling H. Bond, or were obtained by this memorabilia dealer, and we feel certain that the autograph on this item is authentic! Note that each of the 28 items from this consignor all have this paragraph on them. Condition: very good. The part of the album page with Mr. Dix's signature was cut out and glued to a mat at one time, and there is paper residue on the back of it. The original still is in "very good" condition.
