BOB HOPE
Black and white publicity photograph of Bob Hope.
Photograph signed: "Bob Hope". B/w, 8x10. Bob Hope (1903-2003)
was born in England, moving with his family to the U.S. when he was four. A
popular vaudeville performer from the 1920s, he starred in Broadway musicals of
the 1930s, including Roberta and Red, Hot and Blue. Among the
most popular of his 53 films were the "Road to ..." movies with Bing Crosby and
Dorothy Lamour, beginning with The Road to Singapore (1940). He won
three honorary awards from the Academy of Motion Pictures (1940, 1944, and
1965). Seven months before Pearl Harbor, he appeared in the first of his
shows for American servicemen, a tradition he would continue through a
Persian Gulf tour in 1991. His success as a comedian continued unabated from
radio to television with the long-running Bob Hope Show
(1950-1967) and with guest appearances continuing through 1992. A well
known philanthropist, friend to Presidents, and avid golfer with his own
tournament (the Bob Hope Desert - later Chrysler - Classic, begun in 1960),
Hope has made an enduring contribution to American culture. Fine
condition.
