Autograph request
Postcard sent by Bray to Claude Dampier on 10th March 1934 asking for his autograph.
Claude Dampier (1879-1955) was an English film actor and popular character comedian in the early 20th century.
He played largely comic roles, first appearing in music hall acts and then moving to both film and radio comedies. Dampier usually appeared as a dim-witted 'silly ass' type, often billed as 'The Professional Idiot'. He was best remembered for his post-war Jewel and Warriss radio shows, where he adopted the catch-phrase "it's me-ee"
