Description: This auction is brought to you by Classic Entertainment Autographs, one of the industry's best-known and most trusted sources for authentic signed material in the field of vintage entertainment! Up for grabs is the following item: Scarce vintage 8x10-inch black and white 1935 Paramount publicity portrait, shown with a golf club in his hand, boldly signed and inscribed to an ailing friend in the period of the photograph. In fine condition for its age, but priced quite a lot below the general cost of autographed 8x10s from the star to reflect a diagonal crease, which traverses the upper third of the image, passing through the writing, mostly visible when the photo is angled toward a light source, as well as some light corner creasing. With his flowery, pompous quips; hoarse voice; and red, battered nose, beloved vaudevillian juggler-turned-comic film actor W.C. Fields was the quintessential beleaguered everyman, attacked from all sides by nagging wives, bratty children, noisy neighbors, and pesky strangers. Highlights of his far-too-brief film career includeAlice in Wonderland(1933),The Old-Fashioned Way(1934),You're Telling Me!(1934),It's a Gift(1934),David Copperfield(1935),Man on the Flying Trapeze(1935),Poppy(1936),You Can't Cheat an Honest Man(1939), MyLittle Chickadee(1940),The Bank Dick(1940), andNever Give a Sucker an Even Break(1941).
