This 1926 Societe Job movie card of the great Charlie Chaplin is authenticated by SGC “It takes courage to make a fool of yourself.” So said the great comedian Charlie Chaplin, who achieved beyond iconic status in his own lifetime. Chaplin’s career began in the music halls of Britain, and he quickly went on to become one of the great film stars of all time; his popularity extended the world over, thus exemplifying the universal power of visual comedy. With countless credits and awards to his name, Chaplin will perhaps always be best remembered for “The Great Dictator” (1940), a scathing satirical indictment of Hitler and the Nazi regime. Chaplin fully understood and lived his own dictum, “Live is a tragedy when seen in close-up, but a comedy in long-shot.”
