Handsome vintage double-weight 8x10-inch sepia-tone portrait, boldly signed and inscribed in blue fountain pen in the 1940s. In fine condition for its age, with a light crease passing through his hair, which is essentially invisible when the photo is viewed head-on. Zachary Scott was one of the silver screen's great slimeballs, noteworthy, before his early death of a brain tumor, in films like The Mask of Dimitrios (1944), Mildred Pierce (1945), The Southerner (1945), and Flamingo Road (1949).
