Nifty vintage glossy 7.75 x 9.5-inch publicity portrait by James Kriegsmann of the manic bandleader, singer and occasional film actor, boldly signed and inscribed in black fountain pen in the early 1930s. In fine condition for its age, with very slightly trimmed borders; slight paper loss in bottom border at the right corner tip; a tack hole in the left border; and two smallish brown stains in the background to the right of his head. Nice, but priced accordingly.
