Description

Inscribed to the famous advice columnist

Matte-finish 7.25 x 9 full-length portrait of Keller with longtime friend and assistant Polly Thomson, signed and inscribed in pencil, “To Eppie, With affectionate memories of the sweet hours we spent together, Helen Keller.” Also boldly signed in the lower right in fountain pen by Thomson. Nicely double-matted and framed to an overall size of 13.5 x 15.25. A crease to the upper left corner tip and poor contrast to Keller’s inscription and signature against the dark background, otherwise fine condition. The recipient of this inscribed portrait was Esther ‘Eppie’ Lederer, better known by her pen name as the author of the ‘Ask Ann Landers’ advice column. A desirable signed photo with an interesting association. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
