Early original 16 x 20 photo, #38/195, of a scruffy Springsteen, by Phil Ceccola, peeking out from behind a door, signed in black ink by the photographer at the bottom right corner. In fine condition, with light rippling to the top edge and some trivial corner creasing. Ceccola was the Electric Factory photographer and a tour photographer with many major artists, including Elvis. With Springsteen from the beginning, he and Bruce chose five of the best seminal images and he offered them in hand-developed 16 x 20 signed limited editions of 195 each. Developed on heavy fiber stock, each is hand signed by the late Ceccola, who died several years ago. Other examples from this edition, as well as dozens of other Ceccola photos, are permanently installed in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and a retrospective of his career is the focus of a traveling exhibition sponsored by the House Of Blues.
