Description

Oz’s captain of the Winkie Guards

Actor whose career spanned the silent and sound eras (1880–1956) whose often uncredited roles included the captain of the Winkie Guards in The Wizard of Oz; he is best known for uttering the memorable line ‘Hail to Dorothy! The Wicked Witch is dead!’ Striking matte-finish 7 x 8.5 portrait of Lewis, signed and inscribed in fountain pen, “To William Mitchell, Sincerely, Mitchell Lewis.” A crease to the upper left corner, a couple tiny filled in spots of surface loss to the lower portion of the image, and trimmed edges, otherwise fine condition; overall a highly appealing example. An extremely scarce autograph, this is the first we have offered in any format. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
