The actor signs his name in black ink on this card from a mental
telepathists show
Autograph Sentiment signed: "Sincerely/Milton Berle", 4x5
card. Imprinted: "Hollywood Cabaret, New York, Ask Myrus, The Mental Marvel".
Myrus was a mental telepathist who performed at clubs. His wife would collect
the autographs of celebrities who attended his shows. With the encouragement of
the quintessential stage-mother, Milton Berle (1908-2002) played small
supporting roles in silent films, including the part of a newsboy in the
first-ever feature-length comedy, Tillie's Punctured Romance
(1914), starring Charlie Chaplin. Berle then moved into vaudeville and became a
headliner, with occasional stopovers on Broadway and in Hollywood, into the WWII
years. His lengthy starring role in the 1943 edition of Broadway's
Ziegfeld Follies established him as a star. After only moderate
success on radio and in films, Berle made a spectacular television debut as
star of NBC's Texaco Star Theatre in 1948, dominating the airwaves on
Tuesday nights until 1956. He became known as "Mr. Television" and was
everyone's "Uncle Miltie". Lightly soiled and shaded. Fine
condition.
