Description

Rare photo from the classic horror writer adding the full Wolf Man curse

Novelist and screenwriter (1902-2000) known for writing horror and sci-fi films, most notably The Wolf Man and Donovan’s Brain. Scarce glossy 8 x 10 Universal Studios publicity photo of Lon Chaney, Jr. as the Wolf Man, signed and inscribed in silver ink by Siodmak, “For Joe O’Brien, from Curt Siodmak, writer of The Wolf Man.” Below, Siodmak has added the Wolf Man curse: “Even a man who is pure in heart and says his prayers by night, may become a wolf when the wolfbane blooms and the autumn moon is bright.” In fine condition, with light surface marks and impressions and some areas of light signature contrast. Just the first Siodmak signed photo we have offered, this is a difficult to acquire piece from the creator of one of Hollywood’s most popular monsters. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
