Description

Uncommon oversized color photo of the admirable admiral

Color vintage 14 x 16 cardstock photo of Nimitz in uniform beside a sundial-type instrument, signed and inscribed in the lower border in black ballpoint “To Doris and Pierre Monteux—with best wishes and great affection—C. W. Nimitz, Fleet Admiral, USN.” Printed text in the right border credits the photo to George Hamill. Matted and framed to an overall size of 19 x 21. In fine condition, with some light foxing (primarily to borders). A scarce and highly desirable image of Nimitz—just the second color example we have ever offered. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
