Dating from what his entry in the Oxford DNB describes as Askey's 'prime professional days': 'In 1938 Askey joined Powis Pinder's Sunshine concert party at Shanklin, Isle of Wight, where he performed successfully for the next eight years. In 1938 the BBC also engaged him for a new radio show called Band Waggon, in which his part…ner was Richard Murdoch. The show, first broadcast in January 1938, was an enormous success and its innovative style was perhaps Askey's greatest contribution to the entertainment business.' On one side of a 12.5 x 8.5 cm piece of light-green card. In good condition. Centred and well-written. Reads: 'Yours Big-Heartedly. / Arthur Askey. / 1938.' See image.

And please thank the P.M. for inviting me to the party last night. Much enjoyed by the "Big-hearted" AUTHOR Arthur Askey 1975.' Arthur Askey [1900-1982] was a permanent fixture on British stage, screen and radio for most of the twentieth century, impervious to changing times, trend and attitudes, whose career began in the days of vaudeville and ended at the advent of alternative comedy. Harold Wilson [1916-1995] served two terms as Prime Minister, between 1964 and 1970, and again between 1974 and 1976.
