Scarce vintage glossy 6 x 8.25 photo of Christian Dior working at his desk, signed and inscribed in the lower border in fountain pen to fashion designer Joan Simpson Raines, "To Miss Joan Simpson, with my warmest greetings and affection, Tian Dior.” Matted and framed to an overall size of 10.25 x 12.25. In very good condition, with scattered light creasing, a tape stain to the bottom edge, a short tear to the right edge and a much heavier tear to the left side, apparently repaired on the back. Dior is a rare autograph in general, and even more so in signed photographs. A great association piece from the world of fashion.
