Red Skelton I

Description

I'll be performing a tribute to Red Skelton in an upcoming talent show at our company potluck. It's just a small comedic portion of the brief handful of sketches and songs that a few of us will perform. My intent is to introduce the audience to Red Skelton, note the physical difference between him and me (I'm far better nourished than he ever was), give a brief bio. of the famous clown, then perform some of his jokes/humor, and end with his famous sign-off, "Good night and may god bless." Realizing that some may never have heard of him, I've created a few drawings of him (mostly in character) to place on a poster board and thereby (somewhat) evoke his image/style. This is one of the drawings [of which I spent approximately 4-5 hours on each].

Great expression on this pic. Unfortunately I have not heard of him. What era was he active in as a performer?
