MILTON BERLE
Milton Berle sends a note of thanks
Typed Letter Signed: "Milton Berle", 1p, 6½x9½, Personal Stationery. No place or date. To:
Mrs. Berman. In full: "Dear Mrs. Berman: It was very sweet of you to send me a note of
good cheer. Thank you so much for thinking of me. All the best,". 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". Matted by unkown individual. Items were not evaluated
outside matte. "As is" purchase.
