^Lot 1365 Boris Karloff

Vintage glossy 7.5 x 9.25 photo of Karloff from the 1931 film The Black Cat, signed in fountain pen. Stamp on reverse of each indicates photos came from Harry Wilkinson’s “Hollywood Amuseum of Memories,” Marblehead, Massachusetts. In fine condition, with some scattered light surface marks and creases and lightly trimmed edges. This horror film became Universal’s biggest box office hit of the year, and was the first of eight pairings of Karloff with Bela Lugosi. A particularly mesmerizing image.
