KARSH,  Yousuf (NIXON, Richard). ORIGINAL SILVER PRINT  PHOTOGRAPH
OF  RICHARD NIXON SIGNED BY BOTH KARSH AND NIXON. Ottawa: A fine photo
of  a  smiling, youthful Nixon. Image size is 7-1/2" x 9-1/2"  printed
on  a  stiff  board with a total size of 10" x 13".  SIGNED  by  Karsh
right  below the image with the added notation "Ottawa," and INSCRIBED
and  SIGNED  by  Nixon  on the blank border  beneath  the  image:  "To
Gretchen  and Bob King/with deep appreciation for their friendship/and
with  every  good  wish  for happiness/in the years  ahead  from  Dick
Nixon."  The  ink  used by Nixon has faded badly though  it  is  still
readable.  There  is a crease in the lower right corner of  the  board
just  missing Nixon's signature and far from the image. Other than the
crease and fading of ink, a fine image.                       $1500.00
