An Autographed 3" x 5" [8 x 13 cm] Index Card (Learn More) Emmett Kelly, Sr. was a circus performer and clown from the 1930s to the 1970s. Kelly was an inaugural inductee to the International Clown Hall of Fame in 1989. He was inducted into the International Circus Hall of Fame in 1994. In 1998, Kelly was inducted into the Hall of Famous Missourians, and a bronze bust depicting him is on permanent display in the rotunda of the Missouri State Capitol. He passed away in 1979 at the age of 80. His son, Emmett Kelly, Jr., took over his father's "Weary Willie" character four years after his father retired the character, and that caused a major rift between the two, but the son had major success, almost equal to that of his famous dad! Important Added Info: This index card has been personally autographed (signed) by Emmett Kelly. The index card could be matted with a vintage or repro still and framed together to make a cool display! Note that this item was consigned to us by an individual who owned a company that made movies and videos with famous celebrities in the 1980s and 1990s. The owner of the company would have the celebrities sign items from their famous films, and he also had correspondence with many famous celebrities which he saved. In addition, he would sometimes ask celebrities he came in contact with if they had signed items from other stars that they would sell to him, and he purchased a number of items that way. He also would purchase unsigned items from the famed Larry Edmunds Bookshop in Los Angeles or from other reputable Hollywood book stores and poster shops (to have the celebrities sign), and while he was doing that he would also purchase some of their signed items. So all of these autographed items we are auctioning were either obtained in person, obtained from celebrities who obtained them in person, or obtained from reputable Hollywood book stores, and we feel certain that the autograph(s) on this item is authentic (as is true of all the signed items we are currently auctioning), and we give every buyer 30 days in which to review what they purchased and they can return any item as long as it is within 30 days of the end of the auction. Condition: good. There is smudging in the autograph (see our image). Learn More about condition grades
