Default Just Acquired Fabulous painting of 4 movie stars

Does any one have any idea who painted this and who the one on the far left is? The other three appear to be Tracy, Bogart and DiNero.

I have enlarged and enhanced the signature but can make no sense of it.

Thanks for any help in identifying this very unusual piece.

The person on the left is intended to be James Dean, I think.

Thanks John,

I've attached an enlarged and enhanced photo of the artist signature. Do you have any idea who this is?

"L. Gardiner", maybe?

Also, does that say "64" next to the signature? If this was actually made in 1964, then that ain't De Niro.

Of course!

Never made that connection. Any ideas on who they are?

Thanks
