Jack Hulbert
No. 27 in a series of 50 from Player's Navy Cut Cigarettes
Jack Hulbert was born in Ely on April 24th, 1892. He was educated at Westminster and Cambridge, where he joined the amateur theatrical group, and decided that as he had a natural talent for entertaining others, he might as well earn his living by it. In 1913 he made his professional debut in The Pearl Girl, in which a leading role was taken by Cicely Courtneidge, who was destined to become famous with him and to be his wife. After the War, he returned to a successful career, and later took up film work with even greater success, his best-known pictures including Falling for You and The Camels Are Coming.

Original Caption:
New York -- Nine women and five hundred men were herded into scores of police wagons and transported to Police Headquarters in the largest roundup of suspicious characters that New York City has yet known. The drive is believed to have been prompted by the State Public Enemy Law which forbids assembling of known criminals for illegal purposes. Authorities believe they will have to release most of the suspects, as there is no way of proving illegality in connection with their meetings. Photo shows some of the suspects crowded in an ante-room, before appearing in the line up. (1935)
