Description

Extraordinary oversized Spurr portrait

Stunning vintage matte-finish 10.75 x 13.75 photo, signed and inscribed in fountain pen, “To Buster Collier, from Buster Keaton,” and curiously inscribed by the recipient, “To ‘Buster’ Keaton, from, Buster Collier,” and dated 1928. Reverse bears a Melbourne Spurr photographer’s stamp. In fine condition, with a small tear to the upper left corner tip and slightly trimmed edges. Accompanied by a full letter of authenticity from PSA/DNA. A superlative image and just the second oversized example we have ever offered. Provenance: William Collier Family Collection. RR Auction COA.
