Nice 8x10-inch black and white glossy portrait, boldly signed in black felt-tip pen in the 1980s. In good condition, with one minor surface ding, invisible when the photo is viewed head-on. Veteran character actor Eddie Albert alternated between playing loyal sidekicks and craven villains in classic films like On Your Toes (1939), Oklahoma! (1955), I'll Cry Tomorrow (1955), Attack (1956), The Teahouse of the August Moon (1956), The Sun Also Rises (1957), Beloved Infidel (1959), The Longest Day (1962), The Longest Yard (1974), Escape from Witch Mountain (1975), the horror flick The Devil's Rain (1975), and Switch (1975), earning Oscar nods for Roman Holiday (1953) and The Heartbreak Kid (1972). Despite his long and distinguished career on the big screen, Albert is far better remembered for his portrayal of Oliver Wendell Douglas on the T.V. sitcoms "Petticoat Junction" (1965-1968), "The Beverly Hillbillies" (1968) and "Green Acres" (1965-1971).
