Carl Brisson (1893-1958), born Carl Pederson in Copenhagen, Denmark, was
a former professional boxer, dancer, nightclub singer and veteran of the London
stage (from 1923) before making his first major film, Alfred Hitchcock's
silent The Ring, in 1927. He displayed his fine tenor voice when he
introduced the pop standard, "Cocktails for Two", in the 1934 film, Murder at
the Vanities. Brisson, who made his last film, Ship Cafe, in 1935,
was the father of Tony Award-winning theatrical producer Frederick Brisson -
the longtime husband of Rosalind Russell. Saul Goodman (1919-2003), a
New York business man by day, pursued his love of film and theatre in the
evening, making friends with many celebrities. While other autograph seekers
offered album leaves, Goodman presented stars with snazzy photographs, a rarity
then, to sign in fountain pen. Toned. Corners lightly worn. Otherwise, fine
condition.
