Cat. #0013222411: VAL DUFOUR

Rather uncommon vintage signature in blue fountain pen on a 3x5-inch tan card, dating to the 1950s.  In good condition, with a small magazine image pasted over an inscription that the previous owner attempted to remove via airbrushing.  Val Dufour played "everyman" supporting roles on a wide variety of television programs of the 1950s through 1970s, more often than not westerns, like "The Adventures of Jim Bowie" (1956-1957), "Gunsmoke" (1956-1961), "Zane Grey Theater" (1957-1959), "Sugarfoot" (1958), and "Rawhide" (1959).  Among horror buffs, he is remembered for his portrayal of the psychic Quintus Radcliff in Roger Corman's The Undead (1958).  After Radcliff places B-movie queen Pamela Duncan under a trance that causes her to regress back to a prior life as a hunted witch in Medieval times, he must time travel to save her life.
