John Roventini Johnny Roventini. from Johnny Roventini the Phillip Morris Bellhop.By JIM FITZGERALD Associated Press Writer WHITE PLAINS, NY (AP http://members.aol.com/deathpool/obits98/roventin.html
Extractions: WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. (AP) - Johnny Roventini, the 4-foot bellboy who became one of the best-known figures in American advertising by yelling ``Call for Philip Morris,'' has died at 88. Roventini died Monday at a hospital in Suffern, said his nephew Philip Roventini. The cause of death had not been determined. In 1933, Roventini, touted by the New Yorker Hotel as the smallest bellboy in the world, met advertising agent Milton Biow, who had an idea for a cigarette ad and gave him a dollar to locate Philip Morris. Roventini strode through the hotel shouting ``Call for Philip Mor-rees.'' ``I had no idea that Philip Morris was a cigarette,'' he later said. The call began a career that landed Roventini a lifetime contract and a salary of up to $50,000, fabulous at the time. He was heard on popular live radio programs and on some of the most-watched television shows of the 1950s and 1960s, including ``I Love Lucy,'' ``Candid Camera'' and the Red Skelton and Jackie Gleason shows. Roventini, who always appeared in his short-jacketed bellboy outfit, was Philip Morris Cos. Inc.'s ``living trademark,'' company spokeswoman Darienne Dennis said.

Extractions: Johnny Celebrates 25 Years Calling For Philip Morris "Call For Philip MMMMMooooorrrrr-rrrrraaaaaiiiiisssss!!!!! - "Johnny Philip Morris" Lincoln, Me. (DG)- In 1959, NBC Radio aired a special half hour program to celebrate the 25th anniversary of an advertising giant. This "giant" was all of 4' tall and was attired in a bellhop uniform complete with red coat and brass buttons. He became famous for saying only one line with a robust voice. The radio listeners knew him as "Johnny Philip Morris" (Johnny Roventini in real life). Hosted by Ben Grauer, the program was a tribute to Johnny's achievements in radio. With Johnny on hand as the guest of honor, he and Grauer looked back over the 25 years since the first call for Philip Morris was heard over the airwaves. That first "Call For Philip Morris took place in 1934 on a broadcast of the on NBC's Red Network. To the music of On The Trail Movement Grand Canyon Suite, Johnny yelled out his first "Call For Philip Morris to a nationwide audience. In a nutshell, the music and Johnny's call blended well together. It would work well on over 50 other radio programs during the remaining years of radio's golden age (in numbers, Philip Morris sponsored more old time radio programs than any other product).

Favorite OTR Sound Bytes The introduction to The Shadow is an example of the former, and johnny roventini s Call for Philip Mor ee - as Soundbyte might be an example of the latter. http://www.old-time.com/bytes/
Extractions: Sound Bytes Many of us remember Old Time Radio shows by specific sound events that occurred in them. For instance, Jack Benny's "Now cut that out!" may be remembered longer than many of his individual shows. Similarly, some show introductions and/or commercials are remembered long after the show's content is forgotten. The introduction to The Shadow is an example of the former, and Johnny Roventini's "Call for Philip Mor - ee - as" might be an example of the latter. Often, musical interludes (e.g. "The William Tell Overture" in The Lone Ranger ) or sound effects (e.g. gunshots from Gunsmoke ) might evoke a particular nostalgic memory.
