Nice, Scott.

I believe the "Ghost Of Flight 401" also starred Kim Bassinger.

Very eerie movie.

His portrayal of "Pinky" was hilarious.

Nice, Scott.

For some reason, my immediate reaction to his sig, is his appearance in the movie "Less Than Zero."

Hey thank you Christopher!  Actually I paid "Less Than Zero" for since it was in a bunch of autographs and I did not count this in my bid I was after someone else.  After looking into his known good autographs I am now questioning this one.  It is certainly not a forgery but it is from a large vintage mostly through the mail collection.  The autograph is dated on the back 1967 and she sent it into the SAG office apparently to be forwarded, or she got the address from them.  Bill had only been in show business for four years and relatively unknown he had done Dr. Kildare and The Virginian so would be surprised if he could afford a secretary.  What I suspect is it might have been a relative of his (wife or mother perhaps).  I wish I could find autographs closer to the 1967 mark there is an undated album page but that is not much help.  So right now this goes in my likely "secretarial" box for further research.
