eMoviePoster.comAuction History Result 6t028 ROBERT ANDERSEN signed letter '51 about his failed comeback, cool content about Carl Laemmle! Date Sold 2/12/2013Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Autographed Letter (measures 7" x 9 3/4") (Learn More) Robert Andersen was a Danish actor from 1915 to 1934. He made 39 movies in the 1910s and 1920s, but after sound came, his career dried up (likely because he had a Danish accent!). He passed away in 1996 at the age of 75. Important Added Info: Note that this letter has been personally autographed (signed) by Robert Andersen! Note that this item comes from the estate of Paul Kohner, who had a remarkable life! Kohner was born in Czechoslovakia in 1902, and he was a journalist working at his father's newspaper. He came to Hollywood after interviewing Carl Laemmle, who gave him a job as a publicity man. He became the head of Universal's European department in Berlin, and returned to the U.S. in the early 1930s, and left Universal in 1938, becoming a publicity agent. Among his clients were some of the greatest film stars ever, including Greta Garbo, Ingrid Bergman, and also great directors such as John Huston and Billy Wilder. He had close personal friendships with many of his clients, and he saved every bit of correspondence and paper work from his agency! He was married to actress Lupita Tovar from 1932 until his death in 1988. Amazingly, after his death, few institutions showed interest in his immense files, and only a small amount ended up being saved, with a lot literally thrown away! Our consignor purchased the item offered here from Mr. Kohner's estate in 1989, and he has held it until now, when he has consigned several items from Mr. Kohner's estate to eMoviePoster.com, and each item is being auctioned separately. Condition: very good. There is a red pencil mark in the top center of the letter, but otherwise, it is in nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
