Check signed:"Tony Martin" 9x3½. Los Angeles,
California, March 21, 1962. Check no. 2369, drawn on the account of Tony/Cyd
Martin of City National Bank, Beverly Hills, payable to Arthur P Jacobs for
$200.00. Tony Martin (1913-2012), was a popular crooner of the
1940s and 1950s whose deliberate delivery and romantic ballads were more in
keeping with vintage movie musicals than the currents that would shape the pop
music of the last half of the 20th century. He made his first hit record in
1938, Now It Can Be Told. After serving in the Navy in WWII,
Martin made a brief but fairly successful stint on Mercury from 1946 to 1947
that helped get things going for him again, after which he moved to RCA and
enjoyed many pop hits over the next decade. He also got a lot of work in
radio and television, and performed with considerable success on the cabaret
circuit with his wife, dancer-actress Cyd Charisse. Toned. Corners rounded.
Light crease on right margin. Bank stamps throughout. Otherwise, fine
condition.
