A Vintage Autographed Hardcover Book (measures 6 1/2" x 9 1/4" [17 x 23 cm]; 380 pages) (Learn More) Tab Hunter was an actor from the 1950s to the 2000s. Some of his movies include: Battle Cry, Damn Yankees!, and The City Under the Sea. He resurfaced in the 1980s, playing the leads in two John Waters films: Polyester, and Lust in the Dust. He was initially billed as the "Sigh-Guy", and teen girls loved him, not knowing his secret, which was that he was a gay homosexual actor at a time when you could not "come out of the closet", and the studios manufactured romances for him, including a notable one with Natalie Wood. He finally came out of the closet in a tell-all book that he wrote in 2003, but it was not published until 2005. Hunter married Allan Glaser, his companion since 1983, in 2018. Tab passed away in 2018 at the age of 86. Important Added Info: Note that this item has been personally autographed (signed) by Tab Hunter! Also note that 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. There is faint scuffing on the dust jacket. The dust jacket is in a protective sleeve. Learn More about condition grades
