Pensive, intelligent, gray-haired character actor (1882–1964) who appeared in Universal’s three horror classics: Frankenstein, The Mummy, and Dracula (as professor Van Helsing, the indefatigable pursuer of Béla Lugosi). Extremely scarce ALS signed “Your Uncle Van,” on the inside and back of a 4 x 5.25 Christmas card, no date. Letter to “My dear Debbie.” In part: “Here we are at Christmas again but to be truthful I still enjoy the Season…I hope you shall never become too jaded to get a thrill out of it…Where do you figure on going when off to College? For you will be heading there shortly—if my figures are correct. Meanwhile, I trust you get fun out of school—it’s really great as you will realize later. I wish I had gotten more of that out of it when I was there. Realized it too late.” In fine condition, with some light staining and a couple stray ink marks to front cover. Extremely desirable, this is just the second Van Sloan item we have ever offered.
