A 5½ x 3½ plain postcard signed in person by Roy Kinnear (1934-1988), the British character actor familiar to UK audiences for his appearances in many British television comedy shows and films. He worked on stage and radio before gaining national attention as a participant in the television show That Was The Week That Was, followed by Doctor at Large, Man About the House, George and Mildred, The Dick Emery Show (as the long suffering dad to Emery's gormless bovver boy character, Gaylord) and starred in Cowboys, a sitcom about builders. His best-known films are those he made with director and close friend Richard Lester: Help!, A Funny Thing Happened On the Way to the Forum, How I Won the War, The Bed-Sitting Room, and the Musketeer series of the 1970s and 1980s. He appeared, along with Christopher Lee, in the Hammer Horror film Taste the Blood of Dracula (1970) and played the father of spoiled rich girl Veruca Salt in the film Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (1971). It was whilst filming his role as Planchet to Michael York's D'Artagnan in The Return of the Musketeers (1989), that Kinnear died as a result of a riding accident.
