Description

Spectacular signed oversized portrait of the 'Show Boat' composer

Vintage matte-finish 10.5 x 13.75 portrait of Kern playing his piano, signed and inscribed in fountain pen, "To Charles Miller for his unfailing patience, kindness, and help to and from his friend Jerome Kern, January 1939," with a small medal sketched to the left of the inscription. In fine condition, with irregular light silvering to the edges. Kern is very scarce in signed photos and this example is certainly the finest we have encountered.
