Description

Killed by a cigar?

Comedian; he utilized the medium of television imaginatively through sight gags and apparently improvised zaniness. He brought his slightly wacky personality to the ten movies he appeared in before he died in a car cash at the age of 43. Speculation is that he lost control of his new Corvair while trying to light a cigar. Vintage glossy 7 x 9 photo, signed and inscribed in fountain pen “Dear Miss Ebert, Thank you so much, Ernie Kovacs.” In very good condition, with trimmed edges, scattered surface marks and impressions and some light crazing to finish. R&R COA.
