Highly rare vintage black and white portrait as Ivo in the Broadway production of "Katja" (1926-1927), measuring about 6x8 inches, boldly signed and inscribed in black fountain pen in 1928. In good condition for its age, with gentle edge wear. British stage and film character actor Dennis Hoey is best remembered for his portrayal of the ever-befuddled Inspector Lestrade in six of Universal Studios' Sherlock Holmes films, costarring Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce.
