Big, bold vintage black felt-tip pen signature on a roughly 4x7-inch off-white stationery card embossed with his name, dating to the 1960s or 1970s. In good condition, with a faint vertical crease passing through the writing (see accompanying scans), and nice for matting with a favorite photograph. Deliciously macabre five-time Oscar nominated director Alfred Hitchcock, who was posthumously recognized by the Academy of Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror Films in 1994, is remembered by fans of the genre for Psycho (1960), The Birds (1963) and his T.V. series, “Alfred Hitchcock Presents” (1955-1961). His countless classic films in other genres, many of which involved aspects of horror, included Sabotage (1936), The Lady Vanishes (1938), Rebecca (1940), Foreign Correspondent (1940), Suspicion (1941), Saboteur (1942), Shadow of a Doubt (1943), Lifeboat (1944), Spellbound (1945), Notorious (1946), Rope (1948), Strangers on a Train (1951), I Confess (1953), Dial M for Murder (1954), Rear Window (1954), To Catch a Thief (1955), The Trouble with Harry (1955), The Man Who Knew Too Much (1956), The Wrong Man (1956), Vertigo (1958), North by Northwest (1959), Marnie (1964), and Torn Curtain (1966).
