Easton Press Signed Limited First Edition: One Man Tango by Anthony Quinn

This listing highlights a vibrant and deeply personal chronicle of cinematic history: an authentically hand-signed Signed First Edition of One Man Tango: An Autobiography by two-time Academy Award-winning actor and artist Anthony Quinn. Published in 1995 by The Easton Press (Norwalk, Connecticut), this luxury leather-bound volume was produced in a strictly limited press run of only 1,400 hand-numbered copies signed by the legendary actor.

One Man Tango stands as a sweeping, candid self-portrait of one of international cinema's most passionate and versatile figures. Born in Chihuahua, Mexico during the Mexican Revolution, Quinn overcame extreme poverty in Los Angeles to forge a legendary acting career spanning over six decades and more than 150 films. Best remembered for his towering, larger-than-life performances as Alexis Zorba in Zorba the Greek, Eufemio Zapata in Viva Zapata!, and Paul Gauguin in Lust for Life—the latter two earning him Academy Awards for Best Supporting Actor—Quinn recounts his extraordinary journey with unvarnished honesty. Co-written with Daniel Paisner, the autobiography blends vivid memories of Hollywood's Golden Age, his relationships with icons such as Marlon Brando, Federico Fellini, and Laurence Olivier, and his lifelong passion for painting, sculpting, and performance.

Masterfully bound in full deep crimson genuine leather, the covers are elegantly stamped in 22-karat gold with geometric leaf borders and a central filigree device. The spine features raised hubs, gilt-tooled decorative ornaments, title panels, and "SIGNED FIRST EDITION" stamped near the heel. Signature fine-press features include full gold edge gilding, silk moiré endpapers, and a sewn-in satin ribbon page marker. Hand-numbered 671 of 1,400 copies on the limitation page, this volume is signed directly by Anthony Quinn in vibrant light blue ink. Preserved in pristine condition, this signed limited volume is a prized centerpiece for collectors of film history, fine bindings, and performing arts autographs.
