Scarce 0.75 x 1.25-inch clipped fountain pen signature, affixed to a 2x6-inch portion of a tan scrapbook page, between two original black and white candid photos from the 1950s.  Uneven trimming to all four edges; otherwise, in good condition for its age.  The handsome supporting player of the 1930s, who was the longtime husband of Angela Lansbury, ultimately abandoned acting and became a successful film producer.  He is remembered by horror buffs as Ernest Thesiger's stunt double in some of the best sequences of James Whale's Bride of Frankenstein (1935) and his autograph is among the most elusive of the film's many wonderful cast members.
