Photograph signed: "Best wishes/Victor Borge". B/w, 5½x3½.
Well-loved for his comedic renderings of classical mainstays, Victor Borge
(1909-2000), "The Clown Prince of Denmark," launched his remarkable
career with a debut in Copenhagen at the spry age of eight. Quickly gaining
momentum as a gifted pianist, though one who possessed a remarkable sense of
humor, it didn't take Borge long to adopt the persona that would define his
career. Breaking the Broadway record for one-man shows with an exhausting 849
performances at Gotham's GoldenTheater in the 1950s, Borge was a tireless
performer who continued to entertain well into his own golden years. Though it
was uncommon for Borge to appear in films, he did make an appearance as himself
in Martin Scorsese's King of Comedy (1983). Corners lightly creased.
Surface lightly rubbed at verso. Otherwise, fine condition.
