Highly rare heavy pencil signature on a 4x6-inch tan album page, acquired in-person in the 1930s. Some gentle crinkling in spots; otherwise, in good condition for its age. Note that the image of the star shown alongside the scan provided here is not included with the signed item. English-born character actor Stanley C. Ridges is remembered by horror, sci-fi and fantasy fans as the beloved professor who becomes the innocent victim of a shooting and has his brain swapped with the gunman's in a revival attempt by Boris Karloff in Black Friday (1940). After the surgery, he steals the show with his Jekyll-and-Hyde-like madman antics! Elsewhere, Ridges played refined, white-haired men of authority in classic films like Crime Without Passion (1934) with Claude Rains, Each Dawn I Die (1939), They Died With Their Boots On (1941), The Sea Wolf (1941), Sergeant York (1941), To Be or Not to Be (1942), The Suspect (1944), and Possessed (1947).
