NUMBER 7 TOP MOVIE ACTOR OF ALL TIME CARY GRANT SIGNED AUTOGRAPH PAGE. Once told by an interviewer, "Everybody would like to be Cary Grant", Grant is said to have replied, "So would I." He left school at age 14, lying about his age and forging his father's signature on a letter to join Bob Pender's troupe of knockabout comedians. He learned pantomime as well as acrobatics as he toured with the Pender troupe in the English provinces, picked up a Cockney accent in the music halls in London, and then in July 1920, was one of the eight Pender boys selected to go to the United States. Their show on Broadway, "Good Times", ran for 456 performances, giving Grant time to acclimatize. He would stay in America. Mae West wanted Grant for She Done Him Wrong (1933) because she saw his combination of virility, sexuality and the aura and bearing of a gentleman. Grant was young enough to begin the new career of fatherhood when he stopped making movies at age 62. In 1999, the American Film Institute named Grant the second male star of Golden Age of Hollywood cinema (after Humphrey Bogart). Grant was known for comedic and dramatic roles; his best-known films include Bringing Up Baby (1938), The Philadelphia Story (1940), His Girl Friday (1940), Arsenic and Old Lace (1944), Notorious (1946), An Affair to Remember (1957), North by Northwest (1959) and Charade (1963). 2 ¾ x 5 signed autograph page of Cary Grant, a black ink signature with inscription, ‘With every good wish-.’ Professionally Matted and Framed with an overall size of 21 x 18. Comes with a Letter of Authenticity from Guaranteed Forensic Authenticators, (GFA).
