Tim McCoy

Tim McCoy signed sepia photograph, inscribed and dated 1928, showing the Western film star in a classic seated pose holding his hat. Signed in bold fountain pen, “To Margaret – with my admiration, Tim McCoy, 1928.” A desirable early example from McCoy’s silent-era prominence, with a strong, well-placed inscription enhancing the display quality of the image. Photograph exhibits light toning and expected edge wear consistent with age, otherwise fine.
