VAUGHN MONROE
Vaughn Monroe signs a yellow album leaf to a fan.
Inscribed signature: "To Bob/Vaughn Monroe", 5½x4¼ yellow
album leaf. Vaughn Monroe (1911-1973), the popular orchestra leader who
was known for his boyish good looks and engaging personality, got his big
break at Meadowbrook in the spring of 1941. The singer and trumpet player
got mixed reviews from critics, but was a hit with the ladies. When the Big
Band era drew to a close, Monroe's band, which had focused on singing rather
than instrumentals, continued in popularity. Monroe was also a big hit on
radio, well known for both his singing and his Camel Cigarette commercials,
and he continued to sing, both on RCA Victor recordings and as the company's
spokesperson, on RCA's television commercials into the mid-1960s. Lightly
creased. Torn at blank left edge. Light rectangular show through from mounting
stain on verso touches the "hn" and "M" of signature. Slightly soiled. Overall,
fine condition.
