Description

Fabled billionaire Industrialist, filmmaker, and aviator (1905-1976) who takes a place among the most colorful personalities of the 20th century. Known as much for his prolific womanizing as for his record-setting aviation exploits and business acumen, Hughes settled into reclusiveness in his final decades, disappearing from view and seeking refuge in closely guarded havens in Las Vegas, the Bahamas, and elsewhere. His enigmatic persona has remained an evergreen source of fascination more than a quarter century after his death. Vintage fountain pen signature and inscription, "To Maura—with wishes for good luck always, Howard Hughes," on a light yellow 5.25 x 4 album page. In fine condition. A sought-after signature almost as reclusive as the man himself!
