Description

Enormous original Hirschfeld drawing published in the New York Times

Impressive oversized ink sketch drawn for the front page of the entertainment section of the New York Times in 1979, accomplished by Hirschfeld on a 20 x 29 sheet of illustration board, signed in the lower left in ink, “Hirschfeld, 3, Stratford, Conn.” The sketch depicts five-time Tony winner Julie Harris and Jack Weston as they appeared in the 1979 Broadway comedy Break a Leg, written by Tony winner Ira Levin. In fine condition, with a few trivial surface marks. An absolutely unique, oversized original of one of Hirschfeld’s world-famous caricatures. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
