of the most popular country artists of all time, virtually dominating the charts in the
1940s and 1950s. Initially influenced by cowboy singers such as Gene Autry, Arnold charted
28 number one hits and has sold over 85 million records. His top recordings include "I'll
Hold You in My Heart (Till I Can Hold You in My Arms)" (21 weeks at number one),
"Bouquet of Roses (19 weeks at the top of the charts), "What's He Doing in My World?" and
"Make the World Go Away". He was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in
1966. While in college in the 1930s, JOHN RAITT began drawing portraits of famous
people. He sent his artwork to each subject with a request that it be autographed and returned
to him. Two horizontal folds. Otherwise, fine condition.
