POLAROID
PORTRAITS SIGNED BY THE STARS
Rare
Autographed Candids Of Celebrities
Shape The Dazzling Face Of
A Century
HE sexy sixties, swinging
seventies and dissipated eighties brought the glamorous
superstars of Hollywood and Vine to Babylon by the Hudson.
Tim Boxer was on the scene to interview and photograph the
icons of an era of sex, drugs and rock and roll. As assistant
and ghostwriter to fabled New York Post gossip columnist
Earl Wilson, Tim covered the glitterati at film
premieres, Broadway opening nights and a sophisticated nightclub
landscape that is now history.
Tim was armed with a
notebook and two cameras. With his Nikon he photographed the
major showbiz names, which were published in Time, Newsweek,
People, Life, and books and magazines around the globe. He
captured Mafioso Joe Gallo cutting his wedding cake, a
world exclusive shot that appeared on the front page of The
New York Times, New York Post and Daily News—on the
same day!
With a Polaroid he made
instant candids of celebrities. And all readily signed their
one-of-a-kind portraits.
Among the autographed
photographs in this unique collection are such extraordinary
legends as Andy Warhol, Jacqueline Onassis, Elizabeth Taylor,
Truman Capote, Leonard Bernstein, Gloria Swanson, Sammy Davis
Jr., Telly Savalas, George Burns, Gig Young, Henny Youngman,
Mamie Van Doren, Ginger Rogers, Richard Boone, Richard Burton,
Yitzhak Rabin, Martha Graham, Bob Hope, Pearl Bailey, Otto
Preminger, Cliff Robertson, Gregory Peck and Arthur
Miller.
