As you start to collect vintage Hollywood autographs, there’s a great deal of information you need to gather. Let’s say you’re looking at a photograph inscribed and signed by James Dean.

In 1965 singer-songwriter and humorist Tom Lehrer wrote a song about entertainers in politics entitled “George Murphy,” a spoof on the recent election of that dancer-actor to the Senate.
Hollywood’s often tried to mix
Show business with politics,
From Helen Gahagan
