June 2019 Moe Howard Auction
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 6/24/2019
Rare 1923 vaudeville program with Moe Howard billed as ''Harvey Howard'', his pseudonym while performing in the short-lived act called ''Syncopated Toes'' with Shemp and Ted Healy. Moe as ''Harvey Howard'' is billed in the act - with no mention of Shemp, following ''Ted and Betty Healey'' [sic] performing ''Doctor Jekyll and Mr. Hyde''. Healy would then come on stage during Moe and Shemp's performance, leading the audience to think he was intruding on their act. Moe and Shemp performed in the Syncopated Toes for about two years, with no mention in Moe's autobiography of it. Paper program for the Peoria's Pal'ace measures 4.75'' x 5.25'' as folded. Light creasing, else near fine.
