Actor who often played aggressive character roles, perhaps most memorably as the double-crossing gang leader in the 1946 classic The Killers. From 1945 to 1946 Dekker served a term in the California legislature representing the Hollywood district. As he got older, Dekker, unlike many actors, turned to the stage rather than television, and achieved great success there and on the college lecture circuit. He accidentally hanged himself in 1968. Original Boston Theatre program, 6.25 x 9.5, from the 1952 production of Gertie, signed in fountain pen by Albert Dekker, Robert Duke, Patricia Wheel, Polly Rowles, Anita Cooper, and Enid Bagnold. In fine condition, with a few trivial creases. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
