Cat. #0019631203: DAVID NIVEN

Uncommon vintage 7.8 x 9.8-inch black and white portrait in World War II military attire, boldly signed and inscribed in black felt-tip pen in the 1980s, expressing confusion about the Victoria Cross pinned to his breast not having been his own. In fine condition, with one minor crease to the left bottom area. Charming, sardonic, impeccably dressed English star David Niven snagged an Oscar for Separate Tables (1958) and was elsewhere memorable in Dodsworth (1936), Thank You, Jeeves! (1936), The Charge of the Light Brigade (1936), The Prisoner of Zenda (1937), Wuthering Heights (1939), The Bishop’s Wife (1947), The Toast of New Orleans (1950), The Moon Is Blue (1953), Around the World in Eighty Days (1956), My Man Godfrey (1957), Please Don’t Eat the Daisies (1960), The Guns of Navarone (1961), The Pink Panther (1963), Eyes of the Devil (1966), the James Bond flick Casino Royale (1967), horror’s Old Drac (1974), Murder by Death (1974), Death on the Nile (1976), Trail of the Pink Panther (1982), and Curse of the Pink Panther (1983).
