Photograph signed: "Herman/2012". Color, 10x8. British singer and actor Peter Noone (B. 1947) is best known as the lead singer of Herman's Hermits from 1962-1973. One of the "British Invasion" bands of the 1960s, Herman's Hermits had 20 singles in the Top 40 on British and U.S. charts between 1964-1970. The Hermits favored lighter pop-style tunes, some of them revivals of old music hall songs. Their hits included "I'm Into Something Good", "I'm Henry the Eighth, I Am", "Leaning on the Lamp Post", "No Milk Today", "Dandy" and "There's A Kind of Hush (All Over the World)". Although he continued to tour with the group, Noone branched out into acting, primarily on television. He starred as Stanley on Coronation Street, Britain's longest-running soap opera and on the British series, Look, Mike Yarwood! (1971-1973), and Noone, who is known for his boyish charm, hosted My Generation (1989-1992). He has also been seen on U.S. television in guest starring roles on several series, including Laverne & Shirley, Too Close For Comfort, My Two Dads and Quantum Leap as well as the daytime soap opera, As the World Turns. Noone's feature film credits include Hold On! (with Herman's Hermits), Mrs. Brown, You've Got a Lovely Daughter (also the title of one of the group's popular songs), Never Too Young to Rock and Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. Ink mark (unknown hand) on verso (no show-through). Otherwise, fine condition.
