Date Sold 8/14/2014Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage Autographed 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Music Publicity Still (Learn More) Woody Herman (born Woodrow Charles Herman) was a clarinetist, saxophonist, singer, and big band leader from the 1930s to the 1980s, who also appeared in a few movies. He led several different bands over the years, each of which was called "The Herd". His bands often played music that was cutting edge and experimental, and their recordings received numerous Grammy nominations. Some of his movies include: Hit Parade of 1947, What's Cookin'? and Earl Carroll Vanities. He had a business manager who mismanaged his money in the 1960s, and he owed the IRS millions, and he kept performing well into the 1980s, because he was in danger of eviction from his home. He passed away in 1987 at the age of 74. Important Added Info: Note that this publicity still has been personally autographed (signed) by Woody Herman! Note that this item was consigned to us by a man who was a major movie memorabilia dealer from the 1980s on. During that time, he would regularly purchase collections of movie memorabilia from both dealers and collectors, and in some of those collections he purchased autographed items, and over the years he did not re-sell any of the autographed items. Now he has gathered up together all of his autographed items and consigned them to us. So all of the items from this consignor we are auctioning were purchased by this dealer from longtime dealers and collectors, and we feel it is quite likely that the autograph on this item is authentic! Condition: good to very good. The signature is very slightly smudged in a few tiny areas. There are a few faint creases around the edges, but they are mostly only noticeable when the still is tilted to the light. Learn More about condition grades
