HIGHLY rare-- the first we have had in 10 years!-- inscribed black felt-tip pen signature on a 3x5-inch tan card, acquired in-person by a noted autograph hound in the star's later years. In good condition, with gentle toning. Diminutive comic actor Billy Bletcher was one of the Keystone Cops, appearing in nearly 350 silent and early talkie comedy shorts.  He was also an important voice actor for both Disney and Warner Brothers, starring in nearly 160 cartoon classics, including Dumbo (1941).  Throughout Hollywood's Golden Age, he was a trusty character actor, with memorable roles in countless westerns and the horror, sci-fi and fantasy films Babes in Toyland (1934), The Lost City (1935), The Wizard of Oz (1939), The Ape (1940), Robot Wrecks (1941), and I Married a Witch (1942).
