Vintage pearl-finish 8 x 10 doubleweight photo of Veidt as Gwynplaine, in the 1928 film The Man Who Laughs, signed and inscribed in fountain pen to legendary Universal make-up artist Jack Pierce, “To Jack Pierce, Conrad Veidt.” In very good condition, with some light contrast to signature and inscription, missing top left corner tip, some light rubbing to finish, and mounting remnants and surface loss to two corner tips. Photo originates directly from the Jack Pierce scrapbook. Photos of Veidt form this early horror classic in full makeup are virtually nonexistent, combined with being inscribed to the film’s make-up artist, and originating from his collection, elevate this photo to the upper stratosphere of autographed horror images.
