A really unusually nice signed photo from the Harry Potter phenomenon, of star actor Daniel Radcliffe, on an iconic image of him with crossed arms. The photo is hand inscribed in silver marker: "Thank you! Daniel Radcliffe AS Harry Potter". No date. There are many autographed photos of him on the market but on many the signature is only very rapidly scrawled, and the photo is not as simple, direct, and classic. This example is a keeper.

A decorative original poster from the Preservation Hall Jazz Band of New Orleans, Louisiana, measuring 36" by 24" as framed in black strip behind thin Plexi (making for easy and safe shipping). The piece looks vintage but it appears that the "That's It" album dates to only 2013. The vintage graphics style nevertheless give a vintage, older, circa 1960's or 1970's look. Preservation Hall began in the early 1960's playing traditional jazz to appreciative audiences. The band has played all over...

Black and white photo (9 3/4" by 8", 16" by 13 3/4" framed) of Rick "Ricky" Nelson, circa late 1950's, autographed at right and inscribed "To Jill". The signature and inscription are bold and nicely placed at right center. Nelson officially changed his name to "Rick" in 1961, so this might have been signed after that. The framing seems to be circa late 1960's or 1970's. Nelson was born in Teaneck, New Jersey. By his teens he had already attained fame and fortune, appearing in The Adventures...

A copy of 1971's bestseller book "The Exorcist", by William Peter Blatty, published by Harper and Row, this copy in dust jacket and **SIGNED** in black marker pen by the author. This may or may not be a first edition, but apparently it is not "first state" even if it is, as the last number on the last page is a "5". The book exhibits some sunning/stain on the spine itself (as opposed to the dust jacket), with a previous owner's name written in front, and the dust jacket has some wear, including...

Early circa 1915 painting of a race car and be-goggled driver, painted on paper or thin canvas, subsequently laid on board. An old framer's blue label suggests that the artwork spent some time in Rugby, England, but, the painting is laid on a modern day board, much newer than that outer backing would suggest. Taking into account some general wear in the field at right center, and a heavy old cigarette smoke odor close up, I do believe the painting is vintage and of the period depicted, and th...

A classic 9" by 7" black and white photo of George Burns holding a cigar, an impish grin on his face, inscribed in yellow (or ink that has faded to yellow) "Best, George Burns" at lower left. Burns (1896-1996) was an American actor, singer, and writer whose career in entertainment spanned many, many decades. With the passage of time, the photo has stuck to the glass at upper right and I am afraid to try to remove it. In a simple inexpensive frame.
