JOHNNY DOWNS
Seated with a baby on his lap, a promotional still for The First
Baby, inscribed in person to collector Saul Goodman
Photograph inscribed and signed: "To/Saul/All good wishes/Johnny
Downs". B/w, 8x10. Shown in movie still from The First Baby (1936).
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 hosted a series of popular kids'
shows on San Diego television. 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.
