You are viewing an autograph from an amazing Vintage collection we have obtained. The collection has more than 50 pieces and came from Florida so we are going to call it the Florida Collection (FC). What we are going to do is put the letters “FC” (Florida Collection) in every item description so you will be able to see the complete collection by searching “FC” in the search box in our Ebay store. It appears as though all the autographs were obtained in the early 1950’s through the mail. This gentleman would make booklets with articles and pictures from newspapers and magazines from that time period. He would cut / remove the photos or articles and then paste them on construction paper and mail them to the celebrities and ask them to sign and return them. Please look at the scan closely because what you see in the scan is what you will receive. Often times we still have the original envelope(s) if we have them they will be pictured in the scans. We are going to do our best to scan everything because we believe a picture is worth a thousand words. Please note sometimes the booklets have several pages and we are only going to scan the page with the autograph because we feel the autograph is the selling point. Shipping will be $5 Priority mail anywhere in the USA and $10 Global Priority outside the USA. Please feel free to ask us any questions and we will do our best to answer them. Below you will find some information about this autograph.

Sammy Kaye (born Samuel Zarnocay, Jr., 13 March 1910, Lakewood, Ohio — died 2 June 1987, Ridgewood, New Jersey) was a famous U.S. bandleader and songwriter, whose tag line "Swing and sway with Sammy Kaye" became one of the most famous of the so-called Big Band Era. He graduated from Rocky River High School in Rocky River, Ohio in 1927. He attended Ohio University in Athens, Ohio where he was a member of Theta Chi Fraternity. Kaye could play the saxophone and the clarinet, but he never featured himself as a soloist on either one. A leader of one of the so-called "Sweet" bands of the Big Band Era, he made a large number of records for Vocalion Records, RCA Victor, Columbia Records, and the American Decca record label. He was also a hit on radio. Kaye was known for an audience participation gimmick called "So You Want To Lead A Band?" where audience members would be called onto stage in an attempt to conduct the orchestra, with the possibility of winning batons. Kaye was also known for his use of "singing of song titles", which was emulated by Kay Kyser and Blue Barron. Shortly after the Japanese attack December 7, 1941.Sammy Kaye wrote the music and Don Reid wrote the words to: Remember Pearl Harbor. December 17, 1942, Decca Records recorded the song, with Sammy Kaye's Swing and Sway Band and The Glee Club. Musicians included Ralph Flanagan, Dale Cornell and Marty Oscard. Singers included Don Cornell (not related to Dale Cornell), Billy Williams, and Nancy Norman. He was posthumously inducted into the Big Band and Jazz Hall of Fame in 1992 and for his contribution to the recording industry has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
