Signed Letter & Envelope
Jimmie Fidler in Hollywood
~ March 1958 ~

Typed and signed letter from Jimmie Fidler to his friend and associate Henry Dougherty. Both the stationery and the envelope are pre-printed and personalized with "Jimmie Fidler in Hollywood."

Jimmie Fidler (1898-1988) was an American columnist, journalist and radio and television personality. He's most famous for writing a Hollywood gossip column.

Fidler was a Hollywood publicist and advertising man who became a highly successful syndicated columnist with his "Jimmie Fidler in Hollywood" column in 187 outlets, including the New York Post and the Los Angeles Times. In 1933–34, his 15-minute NBC radio show, Hollywood on the Air, sponsored by Tangee lipstick, was broadcast from the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel. He was regarded in Hollywood as a genuine threat to gossip queen Louella Parsons, especially after he scooped her in November 1935 on a major story about Clark Gable, an incident so embarrassing to Parsons that she lied about it in her autobiography.

By 1950, Fidler was earning more than $250,000 a year (equal to $3,345,436 today) and was heard by 40 million listeners over 486 radio stations. During 1952–53, he hosted the live television drama series, Hollywood Opening Night on NBC. For his contribution to the radio industry, Fidler has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 6128 Hollywood Blvd.
