Auction History Result 1a315 ROBERT CUMMINGS signed deluxe 5x7 publicity photo '30s wonderful super young smiling portrait! Date Sold 8/14/2014 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Autographed Deluxe 5" x 7" [13 x 18 cm] Publicity Photo (Learn More) Robert Cummings (also known as Bob Cummings) was an actor from the 1930s to the 1980s. He was born Charles Clarence Robert Orville Cummings in Joplin, Missouri in 1910, and he went to drama school and went to New York and passed himself off as a British actor named Blade Stanhope Conway! Amazingly, that worked, and then he went to Hollywood, where he thought they wouldn't want a British actor, so he became Texan Bruce Hutchens! After having a number of small parts in 1935 and 1936, he reverted to his real name, and became a popular comedic actor in the 1930s and 1940s (although he was very memorable in two Alfred Hitchcock movies, "Dial M For Murder" and "Saboteur"), and he is likely best remembered for starring in the extremely popular "The Bob Cummings Show" TV series of the 1950s and 1960s. He was well known for his extremely youthful appearance, which he attributed to eating healthy food and a lot of vitamin supplements. He passed away in 1990 at the age of 80, having had five wives and seven children! Important Added Info: Note that this photo has been personally autographed (signed) by Robert Cummings! Note that Mr. Cummings apparently sent these fan photos to those who requested them, but he also stamped the back, requesting that they reimburse him for the shipping cost! It is marked "TO COVER COST OF MAILING and PHOTO. Size - 8x10 .25 Size - 11x14 1.00"! Also note that this photo measures 5" x 7" [13 x 18 cm] and is printed on a deluxe double weight paper stock. Note that this item was consigned to us by a man who has been a major movie memorabilia dealer for many years. During that time, he would regularly purchase collections of movie memorabilia from both collectors and people who worked on movies, and in some of those collections he purchased many autographed items, and sometimes he met with celebrities and had them autograph items he owned in person. Both we and our consignor feel it is extremely likely that the autograph on this item is authentic, but he does not have a certificate of authenticity. Condition: very good to fine.
