An Original Vintage Theatrical Autographed 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Movie Still (Learn More) Buddy Ebsen (born Christian Ludolf Ebsen Jr.) was an actor from the 1930s to the 1990s. He is best remembered as Jed Clampett from TV's "The Beverly Hillbillies", and he had a second major TV success with TV's "Barnaby Jones". In the 1930s, he was a song and dance man (first with his sister, Vilma, and then solo), and he was originally cast as the Scarecrow in "The Wizard of Oz". Before filming, he agreed to change places with Ray Bolger, and he became the Tin Man, but the silver paint from the make up on his face gave him an extreme allergic reaction, and he had to withdraw from the movie! He is also remembered for playing Davy Crockett's sidekick George Russel in "Davy Crockett, King of the Wild Frontier". He passed away in 2003 at the age of 95. Important Added Info: Note that this still has been personally autographed (signed) by Buddy Ebsen! Note that this item was consigned to us from the family of Ken Jones, who was an author of books about movies (including books about character actors and western stars). In the course of researching his books, he became friends with many Hollywood actors, and he would ask them to autograph stills for him (originals if he had them, or repros if he did not), and they obliged, usually returning the stills to him with a personalized inscription "To Ken". The family does not have a letter of authenticity for this signed item, but we feel certain it is authentic, given Mr. Jones' personal relationship with the star. Condition: very good. There are tiny "bumps" in the bottom blank border. Learn More about condition grades
