193522678EBeverly Hills CA 1935. Original Typed Letter Signed by silent film actor / comedian Ben Turpin to celebrity columnist and radio personality Walter Winchell. One page dated March 31 1935. From the text: “Dear Walter Just a note to advise you that the story of my life is about to be completed. It is to be entitled ‘My Cock-eyed Past’ by Ben Turpin as told to Willis Gordon Brown. It is to be submitted for magazine publication first and then with elaborations to be published in book form. At 66 I look back upon a stage career in the ‘gay nineties’ and a movie career starting with ‘Broncho Billy’ Anderson in 1908 both I believe containing interesting anecdotes and quite a bit of humor. Any ‘plugs’ tossed this way will be deeply appreciated by an old-timer. Sincerely Ben Turpinâ€. With creases from folding and a bit of age-toning else fine. Ben Turpin 1869 - 1940 was a great slapstick film and stage comedian with a cross-eyed expression best known for his work with Mack Sennett. Walter Winchell 1897 - 1972 was a famous syndicated newspaper gossip columnist and radio news commentator.
