Description

Just two months before his death

Actor (1914–1959) best remembered for his role as Superman on the popular 1950s television series. He was fatally shot under mysterious circumstances at the age of 45; whether his death was a suicide or a homicide remains one of the great unsolved mysteries of Hollywood lore. His death is the subject of the 2006 film Hollywoodland. Vintage in-person fountain pen signature, “To Ken, Best wishes, George Reeves,” on a goldenrod 5.75 x 2.25 album page. A collector’s ink notation indicates that the signature was obtained at the Beverly Hills Hotel on April 6, 1959; Reeves died on June 16. Very subtle feathering of ink, otherwise fine condition. PSA/DNA Auction LOA and R&R COA.
