PFAS72c? A very rare opportunity to secure this vintage 5.5" x 3" wartime hand signed souvenir?of Harry Hemsley?from a WW2 autograph book where his signature rests perfectly accompanying his picture in very good condition and this has great character. (on reverse is hand signing from a Rugby Warwickshire?MP dated 1942). (please see both images).In December 1934, Hemsley presented the weekly radio show Ovaltiney's Concert Party on Radio Luxembourg, a show which ran until the outbreak of World War II in September 1939. The show featured Hemsley in a series of sketches where he impersonated "his" four children Johnny, Elsie, Winnie and baby Horace, in varying falsetto voices in comic dialogues with Hemsley as "daddy". The fourth child, the baby Horace, was perpetually unintelligible, and had to be interpreted by his elder sister Winnie. This led to Hemsley's familiar catchphrase: "What did Horace say, .?" The fictional family featured on Ovaltiney's Concert Party on Radio Luxembourg from 1934 to 1939. The show was so popular at the time that it spawned a comic magazine, in which comics based on the radio characters were drawn by Harry Hemsleyand S. K. Perkins. In 1940, Hemsley also made an animated commercial with his characters. N° de réf. du vendeur 20034810
