Black ink signature on a 2 ¾ x 3 lite green slip. Massey has added the date of 1931 beneath his signature.
Comes with an original 7 7/8 x 9 7/8 double weight still from the 1944 release (filmed in 1941) of “Arsenic and Old Lace”. The still is very fine with a collector’s handstamp on verso.
Massey portrayed Jonathan Brewster in the film version of Arsenic and Old Lace. The character had been created by Boris Karloff for the stage version, and a running gag in the play and the film was the character's resemblance to Karloff. Even though the film was released in 1944, it was shot in 1941, at which time Karloff still was contracted to the Broadway play and could not be released for the filming.
