MILTON BERLE
He signs a 2-year contract with a talent agency.
Contract signed: "Milton Berle". 2 pages, front and verso, 8½x13½.
New York, New York, 1956 July 20. Contract between Berle and the William
Morris Agency engaging them as his agent for a period of one year commencing
July 20, 1956. With the encouragement of the quintessential stage-mother, Milton
Berle (1908-2002) played small supporting roles in silents, 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". Creased. 1-inch tear at bottom left edge (all
intact). 2 file holes at top margin. Overall, fine condition.
