Description

Haunting Bachrach portrait of the Academy Award-winning actress, also signed by the famed photographer

Dramatic vintage matte-finish 8.75 x 10.25 photo, affixed to a 8.75 x 11.5 cardstock mount, signed and inscribed in fountain pen, “To Walter Bruce, with unlimited thanks for his wonderful receipts, Katharine Hepburn,” and also signed in the bottom border in pencil, “Ernest Bachrach, ‘35.” In good to very good condition, with moderate surface creasing over the facial area, trimmed edges, a small area of paper loss to the top left corner, a tack hole to the bottom border, and light contrast to the signature and inscription. This most captivating image of Hepburn could benefit from restoration for an attractive display piece. A very unusual combination of signatures. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
