Tyrone Power This cut signature measures 3 1/2" x 4" signed in light blue ink on autograph paper Guy Williams This hard to find signature is signed in blue ink pen To Will, Best Guy Williams Antonio Banderas Signed in felt tip black Antonio Banderas measuring 4" x 5" We have started our college with Tyrone Power, not the first Zorro, but the second. The first was played by Douglas Fairbanks around 1920 thus the remake by Tyrone Power, and (the best Zorro - Guy Williams) and most recently Antonio Banderas. A Brief History Of Zorro Dressed in the color of a moonless night, with a sombrero and long flowing black cloak, a mysterious masked figure sets out to serve his brand of justice to all evil-doers of Old California. With a crack of his whip and the swift gallop of his black steed Tornado, he leaves behind a mark on the face of his corrupt victims - a distinguishing trademark "Z" scarred by his sharp blade. With stealth he arrives, with flair he fights, he's none other than Zorro, the "fox"! This item mounted with pictures Zorro's secret identity is Don Diego de la Vega, a rich aristocrat who seems lazy and uninspiring, a mild mannered and meek gentlemen of high society. It is of course in direct contrast to the swashbuckling heroics of Zorro, one whom society will probably not associate with Don Diego. Studio photo signed by Guy Williams - authentic not a reprint Throughout Zorro’s long film history of about 50 movies, starring legendary actors like Fairbanks, Tyrone Power, Frank Langella, Alain Delon, and even George Hamilton in a comedic spoof version, perhaps the most famous of all the actors to become Zorro was for Walt Disney’s television series in the 1950s. In more than 70 episodes, Guy Williams was that generation’s swashbuckler, and a fan favorite too. For all fans of the series, who could have forgotten the theme song that sang with gusto of the bold renegade making the Z, which stood for Zorro, in a low voiced chorus. Studio Photo mounted in acid free material While Zorro had inspired other characters, what or who was the basis of inspiration for McCulley to create the “fox”? One theory was, surprisingly, that Zorro was based on Old California bandits, or in those days, they’re known as the banditos. More specifically, he was modeled after legendary bandito Joaquin Murieta. Journalist John Rollin Ridge romanticized Murieta’s life story as a champion of the oppressed and it was this version of Murieta that Don Diego was based upon. Tyrone Power picture mounted in acid free material In the last retelling of Zorro for the silver screen, “The Mask of Zorro”, Murieta and Don Diego meet. Well, not Joaquin Murieta but his brother Alejandro Murieta, played by Antonio Banderas. Anthony Hopkins starred as the aging Don Diego de la Vega, who trains Alejandro to pick up the mantle of Zorro. Directed by Martin Campbell, this version could be seen as an amalgam of various elements of earlier Zorro films – the changing of the guard, Zorro being someone other than Don Diego, the different scheming and buffoon-like villains, while staying true to the spirit of the masked avenger. I This photo mounted in acid free material Raking in gross box office receipts of more than US$200 million, it was certain that a sequel would be an attractive option, but it took almost 7 years to finally bring it to the cinematic screen. With the return of Antonio Banderas and Catherine Zeta Jones, and the vision of director Martin Campbell, “The Legend of Zorro” could prove to be as successful, fun, and filled with swashbuckling adventures that are the hallmarks of a Zorro movie.
