A dramatic early black and white photo of the Empire State Building in Manhattan, photographer unknown, the structure featuring prominently at center of the image, surrounded by the lower buildings from which it emerges. The building was completed in 1931. Some information I saw online suggests the antenna was not placed until as late as 1952. The photo dates from somewhere in that period, and very likely to the early/mid 1930's...

A black and white photograph of snow in woods, circa 1950's or 1960's, unsigned, 12 3/4" by 18 1/2" (17 1/2" by 23 1/2" in frame), recently acquired from the Beverly Hills estate of Lydia and Charlton Heston; the photo was hanging in a hallway lined with many, many photographic works. Lydia was an avid and accomplished photographer herself, and many of the pieces for sale at this event were her own works. Among the photographs sold were signed examples by Edward Curtis, Ansel Adams, Eugene At...

Acquired from the recent liquidation of the extensive estate of actor Charlton Heston and his wife Lydia, this is an original photograph, unsigned/unattributed, measuring 13 1/2" by 17 3/4", unframed, in a clean white mat. There are a number of contemporary notations in pencil on the mat, including "STILL LIFE MID 1920", and a $300 asking price. The photo seems to be perhaps earlier, so "circa 1900" might be reasonable. Lydia Heston was active as a professional photographer, and the estate had...

Old photo of a seaside Greek temple with Doric columns, 10" by 14" (17" by 20 1/2" in metal framing with mat). I am not a specialist in vintage photography, but this seems to have some age. There is some silvering at lower right. The print might have been created from an old negative with some damage as there are some white spots in the print that are not damage to the print itself----I imagine that this is disturbance on the original negative. The mat has a little soiling or moisture staini...

This is a rare collection of black and white mounted photos I acquired from an estate in Bel Air, California some years ago, all bearing on the reverse a green stamp "From the Estate of Norman Cousins", sizes ranging from 14" by 7 1/2" to 17" by 13". These are circa 1960's works by the noted American political journalist, author, professor, world peace advocate, and photographer, Norman Cousins (1915-1990). He was a talented and avid photographer, though he is not especially remembered today f...

The work measures 4 1/4" by 7 1/4" (11 1/4" by 14 1/4" framed). I am not a specialist in photographica of the American West, but from research this appears to be what is called a "photochrom" of a black and white image or...

An original circa 1870's photograph of a sculpture of a warrior, in the National Museum of Greece in Athens, the photograph by the famed "Fratelli (brothers) ALINARI" of Florence, Italy.

On the reverse is a hand written not giving the Alinari name and title "Stele du guerrier Aristion/Museee Nationale Athens, Greece". The Alinari brothers, Leopoldo (1832-1865), Giuseppe (1836-1892) and Romua...

An original photograph of gauchos (Aregentine cowboys) on their horses, wading through a river, by the noted Argentine photographer PEDRO LUIS RAOTA (1934-1996), signed by him in marker at lower right. The work measures 17 1/4" by 12 3/4" (24" by 20" in metal frame). The paper has an unusual texture, seen best in the photos of the signature area. Raota has been called the "Ansel Adams of Argentina" for his excellent work in black and white photography, often featuring strong contrasts between...

A black and white photograph image (not sure if actually an original photo) titled at lower left margin "The Meadow Pool", and pencil signed by the artist in lower right margin, the subject a meadow near mountains, measuring 9" by 11 1/4" and 16 1/4" by 17 3/4" framed.

By 16 he already had a camera and was actively ...

Original old photo of the imposing Palace of Fine Arts building in the Marina section of San Francisco, the photo originally in a brown tone, enhanced tastefully with light blue tints. The building was erected for the 1915 Panama Pacific International Exposition in San Francisco, and the complex is all that remains of the construction undertaken for that event. Today it and the park-like grounds remain a graceful and familiar part of the San Francisco urban landscape. The photo is in what app...

A vintage early 20th century photography of a dirt road bordered by thick vegetation, with hand coloring applied to the trees and elsewhere, signed and blind stamped at lower right by the noted pioneering Oregon coastal photographer, FRANK WOODFIELD (1879-1955). The piece measures 9" by 11" in its circa 1920's frame. A little internet research reveals that this is by an Astoria, Oregon-born entrepreneur who was introduced to photography in 1910 by one Elmer Alan Coe. Soon Woodfield's natural ...

Vintage hazy focus, colorized photo of coastal Santa Monica, looking north and west towards Malibu, 11 1/2" by 9 5/8" as framed in pleasing Southwest style design wood frame.

Broderson (1928-2011) was a congenitally deaf California artist, who overcame his handicap to achieve wide recognition in the visual arts. Cook is self-described as the last protegee of Ansel Adams; indee...

For the collector of Californiana, a scarce early 20th century hand-tinted photograph of the arches at old Mission San Juan Capistrano in Orange County, California, signed in the margin in pencil at lower right and titled at lower left margin "San Juan Capistrano" by noted, listed photographer JOHN M. GARRISON (1881-1964). The classic view of the arcaded breezeway at the beloved mission, still a tourist attraction today, is as California as can be. Garrison was born in Minnesota and was in Cal...

For collectors of early Floridiana, here is a prize---a circa 1930 hand colored photograph of a lazy slough with a clump of distant palms, titled in lower right margin "Miami River, Fla.", and at left margin in pencil is "Harris". This work, measuring 3" by 7" (the photo portion alone), and the entire piece 7" by 10 3/4" in most interesting old original frame, is by the noted photographer best known for his early images of Saint Augustine, W. J. HARRIS. The area depicted is today very close to...

Tinted photo of the famous, accessible Mendenhall Glacier outside Juneau, Alaska, titled in the image at lower left "Where Ice and Flowers Meet"/Mendenhall Glacier, Alaska/(copyright symbol) 1933 Ordway".

This came home in the luggage of a tourist, likely around 1950 (found in Connecticut). The photo has some rippling as shown in the images but is ...

A PAIR of black and white photos of Chinese families, taken no doubt in China, circa early 20th century. The photos, which measure 11" by 14 1/4" (16" by 20 1/2" in black metal strip frames behind plexi) are later 20th century reprints of the originals. The images provide a fascinating look at the people of China in the early years of the century.

Something of a mystery piece......a black and white photo, 12 5/8" by 11" including thin margins on three sides, (in a temporary protective-only frame), unsigned and unattributed, in a frame which bears old Christie's Los Angeles photo department sale and lot information that does not correspond with the image (I checked with Christie's photographs dept). The image of the moving train is in black and white though there is a hint of a pink/violet tint in a portion of the train sides. I am not a...

A circa 1868 albumen photo on thin paper, 9 3/4" by 7 1/2" inside the mat and 19" by 15 1/4" framed, with the blind stamp at lower left of noted early Italian photographer GIACOMO BROGI (1822-1881).

Color poster of the now well known Guggenheim Museum structure in Bilbao, Spain, hand signed and dedicated by famous American architect FRANK GEHRY (1929-) at lower right and dated there '98.

This gleaming shiny metallic structure is credited for bringing the grimy...
