Hardback. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fine. First Edition. Frank Randle (Born Arthur Hughes, also known as Arthur McEvoy or Arthur Twist) (January 30, 1901 - July 7, 1957) was an English comedian. A contemporary of fellow Lancastrians George Formby and Gracie Fields, he was regarded as more subversive, perhaps the reason that the immense popularity he enjoyed during his lifetime has not survived him. Born in Aspull, Wigan, Lancashire to an unmarried Rhoda Hughes, he left school aged 13 and worked in a variety of menial jobs until two years later he joined an acrobatic troupe he took the name of Athur McEvoy after his mother married Richard McEvoy. In 1928, he began to tour as a comedian, principally in Lancashire and the North, developing his own show, Randle's Scandals featuring Roy Castle. He took equity in John E. Blakeley's Manchester-based Mancunian Film Studios and appeared in eight of its productions. In his last film It's a Grand Life, made in 1953, his co-star was Diana Dors. Randle's mischievous wit led to a running conflict with Harry Barnes, police chief of Lancashire seaside resort Blackpool, who frequently banned and censored his material. Randle responded to his critics in robust fashion, frequently throwing his false teeth into the audience and once bombarding Blackpool from an aeroplane with toilet rolls. Randle's police charge sheet is lodged with the Lancashire Constabulary collection, cared for by Lancashire County Museums. On the outbreak of World War II, having failed his medical to join the RAF, Randle joined the Home Guard and started to establish a career in films that even overtook that of Formby. His iconoclastic portrayal of the underdog, flouting authority and disrupting the establishment found a ready audience in a population suffering the privations of war. A scarce title - biography of Frank Randle (1001-1957), one of the best music hall comedians of all time, who reached the peak of his popularity in the 1930s.
