Terrific vintage 8x10-inch black and white portrait , boldly signed in blue fountain pen in the 1940s. In fine condition, with scattered very mild thumbing bends and surface dings which do not substantially detract from the overall appearance. Brilliant, eccentric English Shakespearian stage star Sir Ralph Richardson made about 60 forays into film, including the Boris Karloff horror flick The Ghoul (1933), The Return of Bulldog Drummond (1934), sci-fi's Things to Come (1936), The Man Who Could Work Miracles (1936), Clouds Over Europe (1939), Anna Karenina (1948), The Fallen Idol (1948), The Heiress (1949), Oscar Wilde (1960), Exodus (1960), Doctor Zhivago (1965), Khartoum (1966), Oh!  What a Lovely War! (1969), Tales from the Crypt (1972), Jesus of Nazareth (1977), and the fantasy favorite Time Bandits (1981).
