Date Sold 5/14/2019Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Autographed 8 1/4" x 10" [21 x 25 cm] REPRODUCTION Still (Learn More) Action in the North Atlantic, the 1943 Lloyd Bacon World War II (WWII) Naval Navy military action thriller ("Bogart's Biggest absolutely! He's back form Casablanca in ... Action in the North Atlantic"; "In love and in danger with a flag, a ship, and a woman!"; "Warner Bros. Thunderous Story of the Men of the Merchant Marine!"; "Based on a story by Guy Gilpatric") starring Humphrey Bogart, Raymond Massey, Alan Hale Sr., Julie Bishop, Dane Clark, and Dick Hogan. Note that Warner Bros. had the nerve to bill this movie as "Bogart's Biggest absolutely!", which even they knew was ridiculous, but they also added "he's back from Casablanca", indicating that they were hoping to get some of the people who loved that movie to come watch this one as well! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this REPRODUCTION still has been personally autographed (signed) by BOTH Dane Clark AND Raymond Massey! Note that this autographed item is part of a remarkable collection. In each of our last several all-signed auctions, we auctioned hundreds of items from this collection and now we are auctioning many more signed photos and miscellaneous other signed items (plus many signed index cards that have a different note on those)! In the 1970s, our consignor was a teacher who taught a film class, and he also part-time ran the local movie theater (and he saved all the presskits from the movies the theater showed). Starting in the late 1970s through the late 1980s, he wrote to famous celebrities, and enclosed an 8x10 still or repro (or sometimes another item) from his collection, and he wrote a literate personalized letter, talking about his work as a film teacher, and discussing his favorite movie by that star. He received signed photos back from a good percentage of the people he wrote to, and if the people simply sent him a stock photo back, he did not save it, but if he felt the autograph was genuine, and if they added a personalized note, then he did save them. In the late 1980s, he pretty much stopped sending letters and photos, simply because he was just too busy. So this item (and the vast majority of the other photos and other items we are auctioning for this consignor) were obtained in the late 1970s or 1980s, through personal correspondence with this star. This is of course excellent, because back at that time celebrities were not selling their signatures nearly as much, and many of the stars were pretty forgotten and were happy to get letters from people like our consignor! He of course does not have any "Certificates of Authenticity", but he only kept ones he felt were surely authentic, and those are the ones we are auctioning. However, bidders can certainly compare the signatures to known examples on the internet to judge for themselves. 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.
