HENRY FONDA. Photocopied Typed Script signed: "Henry Fonda" in ink, 1p, 7½x6¼. Headed: "Christmas Seal Campaign/Henry Fonda". In full: "This is Henry Fonda. There's one thing about Christmas - it brings out the best in us. I mean, at Christmas, we usually give a little extra thought to others - to our friends, our families. That's what Christmas Seals are - an extra thought for others - a way of saying we're doing our part to help protect Americans from Tuberculosis. Christmas isn't Christmas without them. Buy Christmas Seals!" Actor Henry Fonda made Public Service Announcements for Christmas Seals in 1964. One of the cinema's most enduring actors, Henry Fonda (1905-1982) enjoyed a highly successful career that spanned close to a half century. His first important Broadway part was in the first edition of New Faces in 1934. That was followed by the title role in The Farmer Takes a Wife, which he repeated in Hollywood the following year. Two years later, Fonda was an established star, appearing in such films as Jezebel, Jesse James, Young Mr. Lincoln, Drums Along the Mohawk and The Grapes of Wrath. In 1964, the year he made the PSAs from the above script, Fonda appeared in three films, Fail-Safe, The Best Man and Sex and the Single Girl. In March 1982, five months before he died at the age of 77, Henry Fonda won his only Academy Award for his performance in On Golden Pond, co-starring Katharine Hepburn and his daughter, Jane Fonda. Lightly creased with folds, light vertical fold at the "y" in Henry. Slightly soiled. Light transference of type at lower margin. Overall, fine condition. Framed in the Gallery of History style: 20x18.
