General McAuliffe Autographed photo with Jimmy Stewart and John Hodiak

A photograph of General McAuliffe, his wife Helen, and their daughter Patricia with movie star and Air Force colonel Jimmy Stewart, and movie star John Hodiak, signed and personalized by both actors. This was probably on the set of “Malaya,” soon after the premiere of “Battleground,” the story of Bastogne, in which Hodiak starred with Van Johnson. McAuliffe is wearing his pinks and greens and three stars. Stewart wrote “To General & Mrs. McAuliffe and Patricia Dunn, My Kindest Regards, Jimmy Stewart.” Hodiak signed, “My warmest Best Wishes, John Hodiak.”   Size: 8 by 10 inches. Provenance: Estate of General Anthony McAuliffe. Shipping within the continental U.S.: $35.00 plus 1.5% replacement cost insurance.

Provenance:General Anthony McAuliffe (1898-1975) then with direct family

Condition:

Very good, with minor bends in both left corners, and a water stain on the reverse. The Stewart autograph is excellent, while the Hodiak autograph is somewhat faint.
