Handsome vintage sepia glossy 8 x 10 MGM studio photo of the young actor in a pinstripe suit with a patterned tie, signed and inscribed in fountain pen, "To Mush." Reverse bears a collector's notation dating the autograph to the Waldorf Astoria on December 25, 1937. In very good to fine condition, with horizontal creases along the right side. Tone was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actor for his role as Midshipman Roger Byam in the 1935 film Mutiny on the Bounty, along with his co-stars Clark Gable and Charles Laughton, making it the only film to have three simultaneous Best Actor nominations, and leading to the creation of the Best Supporting Actor category.
