WALTER ABEL
Small sepia-toned photograph of a young Abel from the shoulders up in a
suit-and-tie, oiled hair and a thin mustache, signed "Best
Wishes"
Inscribed photograph signed "To [illegible]/Best Regards/Walter
Abel". B/w sepia toned, 5x6¾ overall, 4½x6½ image, one surface, printed on
cardstock. Abel (1898-1987, born in St. Paul, Minnesota) was an American
actor with over 80 TV shows and films and over 40 Broadway appearances to his
credit between 1918 and 1985. Abel made his name playing well-groomed but barely
restrained professional man, mostly in top supporting roles, and his dignity
lent well to his appearances in Eugene O'Neill's plays. Among his notable screen
appearances were as D'Artagnan in The Three Musketeers (1935), the
newspaper editor in Arise My Love (1940), as Bing Crosby and Fred
Astaire's hapless agent in Holiday Inn and Charles Calvin, a
philanthropist who falls off a skyscraper to his death, in Mirage (1966).
Lightly toned, silvered and creased. Adhesive remnants on verso. Otherwise in
fine condition.
