Very tough to find vintage inscribed blue ballpoint pen signature on a 4x5-inch tan autograph album page, acquired in-person in the early 1950s. In good condition. Before his tragic death from a coronary occlusion at the age of 35, handsome Richard Hart made his bones on the Broadway stage, trained under Tamara Daykarhanova, and then earned a contract with M.G.M., starring in Green Dolphin Street (1947), Desire Me (1947), B.F.'s Daughter (1948), and Reign of Terror (1949). This is just the second example of his autograph we have ever encountered.
