**Dawn of the Dead (1978) – Richard France Signed Dr. Millard Rausch 8×10 Photograph – Original Autograph**
A fantastic original **Dawn of the Dead** autograph featuring **Richard France as the unforgettable Dr. Millard Rausch**, the eye-patched scientist whose increasingly grim television broadcasts provide some of the most memorable dialogue in George A. Romero’s 1978 horror classic.
This 8×10 colour photograph depicts Rausch during his famous television interview, seated opposite the TV commentator portrayed by **Howard Smith**. Richard France has personally signed the photograph and added his character identification:
**“Dr. Rausch”**
making this an especially attractive piece for collectors of *Dawn of the Dead* and original cast autographs.
### Dr. Millard Rausch – The Scientist Who Understood the Dead
Richard France’s Dr. Millard Rausch appears through television broadcasts as civilisation continues to collapse around the film’s survivors.
While politicians, broadcasters and members of the public struggle to comprehend the catastrophe, Rausch approaches the zombie epidemic with cold scientific logic.
He attempts to explain the behaviour of the undead, arguing that they are driven primarily by instinct and that conventional emotional responses to formerly living friends and relatives must be abandoned if humanity is going to survive. Richard France is credited in the film as the **Scientist**, while the character became known to fans as **Dr. Millard Rausch**.
His exchanges with the television commentator, played by Howard Smith, are among the film’s most memorable non-action sequences and help illustrate just how rapidly organised society is disintegrating.
### Personally Signed by Richard France
The photograph has been personally autographed by:
**RICHARD FRANCE**
with the additional character inscription:
**“Dr. Rausch”**
The autograph is positioned prominently across the centre of the image.
The fact that France has identified his *Dawn of the Dead* character alongside his signature makes this particularly appealing as a display piece.
Rather than being signed on a generic publicity image, this photograph actually depicts **Richard France in costume as Dr. Rausch during the television broadcast sequence for which the character is remembered**.
### A Memorable Part of Dawn of the Dead
Although *Dawn of the Dead* is famous for the Monroeville Mall, its zombies and Tom Savini’s groundbreaking effects, Romero also uses television and radio broadcasts throughout the film to show the wider world collapsing beyond the experiences of Peter, Roger, Francine and Stephen.
Rausch’s broadcasts are an important part of this.
His grim discussions about the nature of the undead and the extreme measures he believes humanity must consider give viewers a glimpse of the scientific response to the catastrophe while the film’s central characters remain isolated inside the mall.
Richard France’s distinctive performance – complete with Rausch’s instantly recognisable **eye patch** – made the character a favourite amongst dedicated Romero fans.
