Photograph signed: "Good luck:/Elsie Waters/(Gertie)", "Doris
Waters/(Daisy)". Sepia, 3½x5½. English sisters ELSIE WATERS
(1893-1990) and DORIS WATERS (1904-1978) formed the music hall and
radio comedy team of Gert and Daisy. Their popularity peaked during World
War II, when the starred on the BBC Workers' Playhouse and in three
feature films, beginning with Gert and Daisy's Weekend (1942). In
popular culture, the Gert & Daisy pairing was applied to soccer players, and
even to gangsters (the Kray twins). The sisters had a TV series in 1959,
but their routines did not transfer well to that medium. They were honored as
OBE's in 1946. Ink faded on signatures. Adhesive residue on verso.
Corners slightly worn. Otherwise, fine condition.
