THE VAGABONDS
America's "daffiest, laughiest swing quartet" are pictured together with their instruments, signed by a member of the band.
Inscribed photograph signed: "Best Wishes! To Jerelyn/your friends/The Vagabond", B/w, 8x10. Signed by an unnamed member of the band. The Vagabonds were a signing comedy quartet who were popular in nightclubs and television shows during the immediate postwar era of WWII. Comprised of Attilio Risso (accordion), Pete Peterson (standup bass) and guitarists Dominic Germano and Al Torriere, The Vagabonds were featured guests performers on The Colgate Comedy Hour (1954-1955), Perry Como's Kraft Music Hall (1958), The Ed Sullivan Show (1956-1964) and The Dean Martin Comedy Hour (1965). They also earned some spots in movies, appearing in Swing Out the Blues (1943) and Tahiti Nights (1944). Billed as America's "daffiest, laughiest swing quartet", they remained in popularity until the mid-1960s. Peterson continued performing standup bass and was a regular player in Billy Holiday's band. Bowed. Corners creased, lightly soiled. Lightly creased. Adhesive residue on verso. Otherwise, fine condition.
