This classic collectible features a 3.5″ x 5.5″ black and white promotional photograph hand signed in blue ink by Bill Pertwee, the legendary British actor and comedian best known for his role as ARP Warden Hodges in Dad’s Army. The autograph was obtained directly through a fan request.

The monochrome format adds a timeless quality, making this item ideal for framing, archival preservation, or display in a curated collection.

About Bill Pertwee

Bill Pertwee (21 July 1926 – 27 May 2013) was a beloved figure in British comedy. He gained national fame for his portrayal of ARP Warden Hodges in the BBC sitcom Dad’s Army, a role he played from 1969 to 1977. His character’s catchphrases and comic timing became iconic, contributing to the show’s enduring popularity.

Beyond Dad’s Army, Pertwee appeared in You Rang, M’Lord?, Hi-de-Hi!, and numerous radio and stage productions. He was also a published author and served as President of the Dad’s Army Appreciation Society. His contributions to British entertainment were recognised with an MBE in 2007.

His signed memorabilia is highly sought after by collectors of British comedy and television history.
