From a massive horde of signatures, all acquired in-person over three decades by an indefatigable autograph hound, comes this bold vintage turquoise fountain pen signature on a 4x6-inch off-white card, decorated with a small magazine image, acquired in the 1960s. In very fine condition. Great Scotish-born actor Ian Bannen snagged an Oscar nomination for his work in Flight of the Pheonix (1965), and was elsewhere memorable in The Hill (1965), Penelope (1966), From Beyond the Grave (1974), Tinker Tailor Soldier Boy (1979), Eye of the Needle (1981), and Waking Ned (1998).
