Highly rare vintage inscribed blue ballpoint pen signature on an irregularly-trimmed image taken from a playbill for a 1966 stage production of "The World of Suzie Wong," measuring about 6.25 x 4.75 inches, acquired in-person following an appearance. In good condition, beyond the odd size. Best known for his portrayal of Mike Brady on T.V.'s "The Brady Bunch" (1969-1974), good-looking Robert Reed, who was intensely private about his gay lifestyle, died of cancer, exasperated by H.I.V., at the age of 59. Having always been somewhat reluctant to sign for fans, his autograph is quite elusive in any format.
