Black and white 8 by 10 press photograph of Paul Winchell in a dramatic close-up portrait with a dummy figure held up to his face, the composition emphasizing the performer's expressive reaction to his dummy's antics. The print bears a handwritten ink signature on the verso signed Paul Winchell, Ventriloquist, dated 9/13/63, with additional handwritten notes referencing pricing, a New York address, and availability for bookings.
The September 1963 date and the booking availability notes on the verso make this a precisely documented example of Winchell's active promotional distribution during his peak television career period. This is one of several Paul Winchell items in this collection and the combination of signed verso, date, and booking information makes it among the most documentarily significant.
