5x7-inch black and white portrait of the leading man in his prime, boldly signed in black marker in the 1980s.  In good condition, with a barely perceptible strip of white-out covering up a notation to the lower right-hand border, and one or two negligible dings, invisible when the photo is viewed head-on.  Handsome, dashing Frenchman Louis Jordan starred in a handful of English-language classics, including The Paradise Case (1947), Letter from an Unknown Woman (1948), Gigi (1958), The Best of Everything (1983), and the James Bond flick Octopussy (1983).
