Collection of Autographs, Letters and Signed Photos, Hitchcock, Hope, Burns, Hepburn Swanson, Kelly, Rogers Many More. One of the more unique collections of autographs we have offered. A huge folio of nearly 90 signed photos, cards, and letters on the occasion of a couple's 50th Wedding Anniversary, congratulations sent to them by entertainers they loved throughout their lives, based on their children writing to them. The response to their anniversary proved amazing, most especially Bob Hope who in a spectacular gesture of kindness, played golf with their father, a life-long dream which was covered in area papers. Autographs include Bob Hope, Katherine Hepburn, Lee Marvin, Alfred Hitchcock, Kirk Douglas Gloria Swanson, Dustin Hoffman, Mary Pickford, Bette Davis, Gene Kelly, George Burns, Glen Campbell, Jimmy Durante John Denver, Bob Newhart, Woody Allen, Fred Astaire, Leonard Bernstein, Mel Blanc, Carol Burnett, Johnny Carson, News titans Walter Cronkite, John Chancellor, Edwin Newman, Dan Rather, Roger Mudd, Daniel Schorr, David Brinkley, two from Doris Day, Phyllis Diller, Angie Dickenson, Charlton Heston, Henry Fonda, Astronaut John Glenn, Andy Griffith, Rock Hudson, Rosalind Russell, Shelley Winters, Lawrence Welk, and that is about half of the collection.
