An Original Vintage Deluxe 9 1/4" x 9 1/2" [23 x 24 cm] Still (Learn More) Jimmy Durante was a legendary actor/comedian from the 1920s to the 1960s. He was memorable for his very large nose, and he was nicknamed "Schnozzola". He started performing in 1916, and in the early 1920s he formed a trio with two black African Americans, Eddie Jackson and Lou Clayton, which was certainly unusual for that time! The trio, known as "Three Sawdust Bums", became a major success, including in vaudeville and on Broadway. The trio broke up in 1931, and Durante was later in movies, TV, and virtually every other form of entertainment (and Eddie Jackson remained his sidekick throughout his career)! Some of his movies include: The Man Who Came to Dinner, It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World, The Christmas Party, and Two Sisters from Boston. He passed away in 1980 at the age of 86. Important Added Info: Note that in this photo with Jimmy Durante is Eddie Jackson at a 1954 auto show. 31 years before this photo was taken, Jackson had first performed with Durante in vaudeville (see above). Note that this still measures 9 1/4" x 9 1/2" [23 x 24 cm], but it has not been trimmed. Also note that this is a deluxe still printed on double weight paper stock. Condition: good to very good.
