frequent guest on Toast of the Town, on verso (no show through). In 1935,
Don Ameche (1908-1993) won a bit part in Clive of India (he was credited
as "Prisoner in the Black Hole"). He was so memorable in the title role in
1939's The Story of Alexander Graham Bell that for years afterward a
telephone was known as an "ameche". Ameche continued working steadily
through the mid-1940s. During the 1950s, he worked occasionally on television,
and he began appearing infrequently in low-budget films during the 1960s and
1970s. In 1985, Ameche starred in Cocoon and won the 1986 Academy
Award for Best Supporting Actor. It was his only Oscar nomination.
Ameche followed up that role to even more acclaim in 1988's Things
Change. Before his death in 1993, Ameche rounded out his career with brief
but memorable performances in Oscar (1991) and Corrina, Corrina
(1994). Nanci Crompton appeared in several television series in the late
1940's and early 1950's. Photograph is lightly rippled. Binding holes at
blank right edge. Fine condition.
