Rare authentic vintage inscribed blue fountain pen signature-- Almost everything one sees on him was secretarially signed!-- on a 4x6-inch green autograph album page, acquired in-person in the late 1930s and decorated with a magazine image of the star. In good condition for its age. Endearingly human leading man Spencer Tracy won back-to-back Oscars for Boys Town (1937) and Captains Courageous (1938), and was nominated a whopping seven other times, for San Francisco (1936), Father of the Bride (1950), Bad Day at Black Rock (1955), The Old Man and the Sea (1958), Inherit the Wind (1960), Judgment at Nuremberg (1961), and Guess Who's Coming to Dinner? (1967). He was elsewhere memorable in 20,000 Years in Sing Sing (1932), the horror flicks Dante's Inferno (1935) and Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1941), Thirty Seconds Over Tokyo (1944), Adam's Rib (1949), and It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World (1963).
