Description

From the trenches to Tinseltown

American soldier and actor (1924–1971) whose heroism during World War II earned him the Medal of Honor. After the war, Murphy parlayed his popularity, small-town charm, and baby-faced good looks into a respectable film career, appearing in a string of (mostly) westerns and war dramas. He died in a plane crash at the age of forty-six. Vintage glossy 8 x 10 United Artists publicity photo of Murphy from 1959, signed and inscribed in fountain pen “To ‘Cinelandia’ in appreciation - Sincerely from Audie Murphy.” In fine condition, with some trivial edge creases, notations on reverse and a couple small surface dings. R&R COA.
