John Amos

John Allen Amos Jr. (born 27 December 1939 in Newark, New Jersey, USA; died 21 August 2024 in Los Angeles, California, USA) was an American actor known for his role as James Evans, Sr. on the CBS television series Good Times (1974-76) and for the 1977 miniseries Roots (1977). However, I knew him best for his supporting roles in movies such as The Beastmaster (1982), American Flyers (1985),  Coming to America (1988), Lock Up (1989), Two Evil Eyes (1990), Die Hard 2 (1990) and Ricochet (1991).

I purchased Mr Amos's autograph from one of the Showmasters Facebook sales in November 2020 (he appeared at Collectormania 20 in Milton Keynes in November 2013).
