Terrific vintage glossy 7.5 x 9.75 photo from the classic 1942 Universal horror film The Ghost of Frankenstein, showing Hardwicke as Ludwig Frankenstein and Chaney as the Monster, signed and inscribed in fountain pen, “For Irwin, Lon Chaney, Jr.,” and “To Irwin, Cedric Hardwicke.” Expertly double-matted and framed to an overall size of 15.5 x 17.5. In fine condition, with scattered creases. The Ghost of Frankenstein was the fourth installment of Universal Pictures’ series of screen adaptations of the gruesome horror tale, and the first to replace Boris Karloff with Chaney in the role of the Monster. Chaney became the studio’s leading horror actor throughout the 1940s and holds the distinction of being the only actor to portray all four of Universal's major horror characters: the Wolf Man, Frankenstein's Monster, the Mummy, and Count Dracula. Signed photos portraying these familiar characters in full costume and makeup are amongst the most desirable in all of classic entertainment. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
