Al Jolson Signed Autograph Signature 5x4.5 Vintage Cut Paper Jazz Singer

Al Jolson was a pioneering entertainer of the early 20th century, famed as one of the biggest stars of his era and for headlining the groundbreaking 1927 film The Jazz Singer.

This 5x4.5 vintage cut signature on paper is bold and clearly legible, in excellent condition for its age and well-suited for display.

As an entertainer from the earliest era of recorded American show business, signed Al Jolson cut signatures are genuinely scarce.

Provenance

This item is believed to have come from the personal collection of Margaret Simon, who served as secretary to Paul Bern in the late 1920s and was a close friend of Jean Harlow. After leaving Bern, she worked in wardrobe at Universal Studios during its celebrated monster film era, then spent the remainder of her career at MGM. She maintained a scrapbook throughout her years in Hollywood that included photographs, letters, signatures, and other memorabilia. As the story goes, her nephew eventually came into possession of her collection and sold signatures cut from the scrapbook, along with photos, letters, and other signed pieces. This information was provided by a prior collector of items from this collection. Additional pieces from the same find are available on our site.
