Inscribed Photograph signed: "To Joseph Gregg/with many thanks/for
your very kind/letter-/Douglas Fairbanks Jr", B/w 8x10. Douglas
Fairbanks, Jr. (1909-2000), the son of the dashing actor of the 1920s
and Anna Beth Sully, the daughter of an industrialist, was raised by his mother
after his parents' divorce in 1918. At the age of 13, he starred in Lasky's
Stephen Steps Out, an unsuccessful attempt to exploit the Fairbanks name.
Although the younger Fairbanks, a movie producer as well as an actor,
appeared in some 75 films, his father took little interest in his son's
career, and the two did not become close friends until the early 1930s. His
feature films included Stella Dallas (1926), Little Caesar (1930),
The Prisoner of Zenda (1937), Gunga Din (1939) and Sinbad the
Sailor (1947), and Fairbanks also appeared in a number of made-for-TV movies
and hosted the anthology series, Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. Presents
(1952-1955). In the 1930s, he was married to actress Joan Crawford.
Slightly creased. Otherwise, fine condition.
