Choice 8x10-inch color portrait in his prime, in a publicity image for "Green Acres" (1965-1971), boldly signed in black felt-tip pen in-person for an inveterate Los Angeles, California-based autograph hound in the 1990s. In good condition. 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).
