Rare Original Authentic XL RED SKELTON Hand Signed Folding autographed card

Description

This original vintage hand signed Red Skelton thank you card was part of an extremely large collection of rare business cards we recently acquired. We believe this card was acquired by the previous owner and curator of the overall collection in the late 70's like most of the rest of the collection. After very careful inspection of this card there is nothing we can list here that is notable which would demonstrate a detraction from the perfect state this card is in. Eye appeal and quality of appearance is stellar and there is little more we can say other than this card is as close to brand new for an original of its age that you will find. As always please utilize the photographs of this item to judge condition for yourself and feel free to ask any questions needed. The text on the front is in absolutely new condition and features very bold raised embossed name RED SKELTON in bold shiny deep uninterrupted color. The interior text and signature appear as if they were typed and written recently, in other words they look perfect, free of color fading or light/UV damage! This card was stored inside chemical free
sleeves for the majority of their existence while curated in the world class collection they belonged too.
Further detailed Description of item:
Folded the card measures roughly 3.5 inches high by 4.5 to 5 inches wide and unfolded the card is roughly 7 inches in hieght by 4.5 to 5 inches wide. The card features typed message which reads "Dear Mr.English:" followed by a hand written "Many Thanks," then features a hand signature in same felt tipped sharpie marker "Red Skelton".
This is a hard variety of signed card to find. Easily cuttable if your collection calls for this type of modification, Red obviously was thinking of this when he signed the card leaving ample space between the typewriter text and the hand written section of the card.
