Highly uncommon vintage blue ballpoint pen signature on a 2x4-inch off-white card, acquired in-person by a busy New York City-based autograph hound in the early 1950s. In good condition. Good-looking German-born supporting actor John Ericson, who was a Playgirl centerfold in 1974, had memorable parts in two fantasy favorites, 7 Faces of Dr. Lao (1964) and Bedknobs and Broomsticks (1971), among many other noteworthy film roles.
