This vintage 8 x 10 black and white photograph of John Wayne from *True Grit* is beautifully signed and inscribed in black felt-tip pen. In the photograph, Wayne is wearing his iconic black patch and has written, "Kenneth - Good Luck & Thanks, John Wayne." This stunning inscription adds a personal touch from the legendary Hollywood Western star, who won the Academy Award for Best Actor for his memorable role as Rooster Cogburn in this film. Upon accepting his Oscar, Wayne humorously remarked, "Wow! If I'd known that, I'd have put that patch on 35 years earlier."
Measuring 8 inches by 10 inches, the photograph is in very good condition and comes with a James Spence Authentication (JSA) Letter of Authenticity, ensuring its provenance. This signed and inscribed piece is a must-have for any John Wayne fan or collector of classic cinema memorabilia.
