Douglas Elton Fairbanks Jr. (December 9, 1909 – May 7, 2000) was an American actor, producer, and decorated naval officer of World War II. He is best-known for starring in such films as The Prisoner of Zenda (1937), Gunga Din (1939), and The Corsican Brothers (1941). The son of Douglas Fairbanks and stepson of Mary Pickford, he was first married, briefly, to actress Joan Crawford.

Doyle New York is honored to auction property from the Estate of Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. on Tuesday, September 13, 2011 at 10am. The sale comprises over 430 lots of memorabilia, bespoke clothing, accessories, photographs, books, silver, furniture, artwork and decorations from Mr. Fairbanks’ Park Avenue home.

Born into Hollywood royalty – his father was the swashbuckling actor Douglas Fairbanks, Sr. and his stepmother was "America’s Sweetheart" Mary Pickford – Douglas, Jr. entered the film world at the young age of 13 and starred in such films as Morning Glory, Prisoner of Zenda and Gunga Din.

After the onset of World War II, Fairbanks was appointed by President Roosevelt as special envoy to South America, in which capacity he gathered intelligence about Germany’s activity there. Later, as part of an officer exchange program directed by Lord Louis Mountbatten, he trained with the Royal Navy, with a stint at the Commando Training School at Ancharry Castle, Scotland. Mountbatten had been friendly with Douglas Jr.’s father, and had requested his assignment to the program. The two men remained life-long friends—a friendship that would ultimately extend to the entire Royal family.

In 1943 Fairbanks returned home. Using the knowledge he had gained with the Royal Navy, under the command of U.S. Admiral Kent Hewitt he was instrumental in establishing the Beach Jumper program, which specialized in the art of naval deception and disinformation. Following the War, he was the first director of C.A.R.E., which assisted in providing much needed food and supplies to a war-torn Europe.

Fairbanks spent his later years acting in stage, film and television productions, traveling often to his beloved England and his "Vicarage" in Palm Beach, and enjoying the company of the myriad close friends he made during his long and well-lived life.

Nice Lightweight Blanket
Color: Light Camel, Size: King(108"x90")
I bought this because my winter blanket is too heavy for the summer. I'm a hot sleeper and have to have the temperature at 68 at night because the bedroom is upstairs above a garage and it gets warm. This blanket is very soft and not thick and I don't get hot. I have a queen size bed but I bought a king size so it looks more like a bedspread. It doesn't hang down far on one side but that is the side that people don't see so that's fine. If you like a blanket on the thinner side yet still warm enough, you will like this.

Bright color & true to size
Color: Red, Size: Twin(60"x80")
I ordered red. Color was vibrant although it has a touch of Orange - not the deep red I thought I would get. Funky chemical smell when I opened it - it went away after I spread it out for a few hours. It's soft with hemmed edges. A little thin but OK for the bed I ordered it for. Price was right & I would probably order additional colors if warranted in the future. It arrived quick.

Cozy Blanket Burrito….awesome!
Color: Brown, Size: King(108"x90")
The king size chocolate brown fleece blanket has quickly become my go-to for comfort and style, making it a must-have in my home. It feels like being wrapped in a cloud—if clouds were soft, warm, and available on Amazon. LOL Seriously, the softness is so delightful and drapes perfectly over my king-sized bed, ensuring I stay warm and cozy during those chilly nights, or when my husband tries to steal the covers. Plus, the rich chocolate brown color adds a touch of sophistication to my bedroom, making it look like I've stepped straight out of a home decor magazine—if only my life were so stylish! It also cleverly hides pet hair, so I'm not living in a fur-tastic disaster zone. After multiple washes, it’s still holding up like a champ, remaining soft and pilling-free. In short, this blanket is the perfect blend of warmth and humor—it's not just a blanket; it's a lifestyle choice. Highly recommended for anyone who loves snuggling, practicality, and a bit of style—because let’s be honest, we all need a little extra warmth in life, especially when doing the classic “blanket burrito” on the couch!
