A classic, circa 1980 or early 1980's photograph of famed American actress and singer BARBARA STREISAND (1942-).

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.
