Original vintage program from the Hollywood Victory Caravan, for a star-studded performance at Loew’s Capital Theatre, in Washington, D. C., on April 30, 1942, 9 x 12, 32 pages, signed and inscribed inside in fountain pen by four performers, two signing next to their images inside. “To ‘Jimmy’ who isn’t so tough but a sweet kind whose friendship I shall cherish and whose sincere thought I will always admire. Believe me your friend, Bert Lahr”; “To Jimmy—with the admiration and respect of Ray Milland.” The other two have signed on top of Cagney’s image, “May 1942, Jimmy, you’re a man’s man—It took a caravan of national importance to bring two alumni together—Its been my pleasure & one that I’ll always remember. Bob Weitman,” and also signed by musical director Alfred Newman, who adds a three-bar AMQS of an unidentified song, writing underneath, “(I love this tune—(Irish–not Welsh) and I love you too! Alfred Newman.” In fine condition, with expected light handling wear and slight show-through from signatures on two following pages. The Hollywood Victory Caravan was a three-week trip across the country by famous performers to raise money for war bonds. Among those who appeared were Laurel and Hardy, Cary Grant, Bing Crosby, and Bob Hope, who served as the host. A wonderful item with great patriotic and celebrity association.
