Don’t miss your chance to grab this exceptional “Creature From The Black Lagoon” Triple-Signed Photo before it swims away! THE BACKSTORY – Florida native, stuntman & filmmaker Ricou Browning played “The Creature From The Black Lagoon” for all of the scenes in and under the water. He was also directed the underwater sequences. He is often credited as the father of underwater photography and cinematography. Stuntman Ben Chapman played the Gillman for all of the scenes filmed on land. Julie Adams played the attractive, intelligent female lead, Kay. THE FEUD – What many fans don’t know is that Browning and Chapman had a decades-long feud over who deserved to call themselves “The Creature”. While each man blamed the other for the feud, Browning was infamous for refusing to sign anything which Chapman had signed. Chapman liked to antagonize Browning by adding “The REEL Gillman” to his signature. Their hostility toward each other means that photos signed by BOTH are considered VERY RARE and TRIPLE-SIGNED photos (Browning, Chapman & Adams) are EXTREMELY RARE!

Brent Hockman Autographs & Antiques has been in business since 1995. My business focused primarily on autographs from 1995 until around 2007. At that time, I expanded my inventory and focus to include a broad range of vintage and antique items. In the 1990s I helped create some of the earliest autograph dealer registries to keep the hobby clean and safe. When I “retired” as a full-time autograph dealer in 2007, I stored away some of my best inventory to sell at a later date. As an empty-nester, I’ve decided to liquidate most of my old autograph inventory so new collectors can enjoy my collection. All of my autographed items are priced competitively to allow room for buyers to obtain a third-party authentication from JSA, PSA or other well-respected authentication services.
