JOSEPH CALLEIA. Vintage 5x7 matte finish silver tone bust portrait, boldly inscribed in blue fountain pen, "To 'Peter'/With my best wishes/Joseph Calleia/1950." Very fine condition. Although occasionally cast in sympathetic roles, character actor Joseph Calleia is better remembered as one of Hollywood's leading heavies, playing snarling, meancing mobsters and other assorted low-lifes to great effect throughout the 1930s and '40s.
