Description

Our first Ritchie-the 'little tramp' originator

Scottish comedian (1878-1921) who traveled the world working alongside Charlie Chaplin and Stan Laurel with the Karno Fun Factory and Comedy Troupe; he is best remembered for the silent comedy shorts he made between 1914 and 1920 for the L-KO Kompany and Fox Film Sunshine Comedy unit, and for creating the 'little tramp' character that was later popularized by Chaplin. Rare vintage matte-finish 8 x 10 portrait of Ritchie by Floyd Photography Studio of New York, signed and inscribed in fountain pen to silent actor/comedian Phil Dunham, "Best wishes, To-'Phil'! Truly yours, Billie Ritchie, 1915." In fine condition, with light soiling, a small tear to the top edge, and a small crease to the lower right corner tip. Ritchie remains extremely rare across all signed formats, with this photo representing the first time we have offered the comedic pioneer.
