In fine condition for its age, with a few minor surface scuffs and a minor diagonal crease to the lower right-hand corner tip. Hulking English-born German actor Henry Victor was a leading man in British silents, but, with the advent of sound, his dense Germanic accent forced him to switch to character roles, often as Nazis or other villains. Beyond films like \u003ci\u003eConfessions of a Nazi Sp\u003c\/i\u003ey\u003ci\u003e \u003c\/i\u003e(1939), \u003ci\u003eThe Mortal Storm\u003c\/i\u003e (1940), \u003ci\u003eTo Be or Not to Be\u003c\/i\u003e (1942), \u003ci\u003eSherlock Holmes and the Secret Weapon\u003c\/i\u003e (1942), and \u003ci\u003eThey Got Me Covered \u003c\/i\u003e(1943), he had memorable roles in a number of horror, sci-fi and fantasy classics. He starred as Hercules, the hulking strongman who secretly courts the scheming Cleopatra in Tod Browning's \u003ci\u003eFreaks\u003c\/i\u003e (1932); the Saxon Warrior in James Whales' \u003ci\u003eThe Mummy\u003c\/i\u003e (1932); Furber in \u003ci\u003eThe Mad Doctor \u003c\/i\u003e(1941); and Dr. Miklos Sangre in \u003ci\u003eKing of the Zombies\u003c\/i\u003e (1943). This is one of the only examples of his autograph we have encountered in over 35 years.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":null,"offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67860950679779,"sku":"gpq1793368197422","price":129.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/3965\/8211\/files\/cat-005452-henry-victor_1.jpg?v=1793368204","url":"https:\/\/vintageinspiredwear.shop\/products\/cat-005452-henry-victor","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
