NYPD detective (1930–1995) who inspired the book and film, The French Connection. His character, Popeye Doyle, was portrayed by Gene Hackman. Egan, his partner Sonny Grosso, and other NYPD detectives made headlines when they broke up a drug ring in 1961. Seizing 112 pounds of heroin, the raid was the largest of its time. Scarce felt tip signature and inscription, “To Buddy, Best Wishes, Eddie Egan,” on an off-white 6 x 4 card. In fine condition, with overall toning and two overlapping blocks of uniform toning, neither of which detract from the crisp signature, and notations in another hand on the reverse.
