Description

The brooding Brando in On the Waterfront: "Excuse the sour puss"

Rare vintage glossy 8 x 10 photo of a pensive Brando as Terry Malloy in the 1954 classic On the Waterfront, signed and inscribed in the lower border in blue ballpoint, "To Mary, Excuse the sour puss, Marlon Brando.” In very good condition, with moderate overall creasing, light stains to the left border, and tape stains and emulsion loss (from removed tape) at the corners. A spectacular portrait from one of Brando's greatest roles.
