Fang-tastic vintage 8x10-inch double-weight sepia-tone portrait as Professor Adam Strang-- sinister maker of waxworks-- in The Whispering Shadow (1933), boldly signed and inscribed in blue fountain pen in the period of the film. In fine condition for its age, with some edgewear; a few light handling dings; and some minor creasing to the upper right-hand corner. This signed image was recently photographed for use in a biographical book by Gary Rhoades.
