Cat. #00520531: CHIEF THUNDERCLOUD

Sorry, this item has already been sold.

Exceptionally rare and quite desirable vintage inscribed bold pencil signature on a 4x6-inch tan autograph album page, writing his name in both the Western and Blackfoot alphabets, acquired in-person in 1937. In good condition. Born Victor Daniels, western character actor Chief Thundercloud, who was of Blackfoot descent, was the first performer to portray Tonto, the Lone Ranger's Native American companion, on the screen. He died of stomach cancer at the age of 56, having signed very few autographs during his brief lifetime.
