JOHNNY DOWNS
Youthful studio photo, arms crossed, inscribed in person to collector Saul Goodman
Photograph inscribed and signed: "For Saul -/Friendly Greetings!/Johnny Downs". B/w, 8x10. Collector's ink stamp on verso dates signature: January 5, 1940. Johnny Downs (1913-1994) appeared as Johnny in numerous Our Gang comedies (1923-1927). An actor who could also sing and dance, he appeared on Broadway and in many "college musicals" of the 1930s. His one directing effort, Call Me Madam, earned a Best Director nomination from the Directors' Guild of America. He later became a popular television personality in San Diego. Saul Goodman (1919-2003), a New York business man by day, pursued his love of film and theatre in the evening, making friends with many celebrities. While other autograph seekers offered album leaves, Goodman presented stars with snazzy photographs, a rarity then, to sign in fountain pen. Corners worn and creased. Lightly toned around edges. Otherwise, Fine condition.
