Jazz musician (1904–1943) whose inimitable “stride” piano style made him one of the greatest players ever. As a songwriter, Waller produced such standards as “Ain’t Misbehavin’” and “Honeysuckle Rose.” Partially printed DS, one page, 5.25 x 3.25, June 17, 1936. An IOU “on account of advance of salary” in the amount of $75.00. An unusually appealing example with a beautiful, perfect signature! In very fine condition, with very faint paperclip impression. R&R COA.
