Vintage Photograph Of Amelia Earhart Signing " 20 Hrs 40 Min " At Columbus Lazarus
Item History & Price
Interesting vintage 4 1/2 by 6 3/4 inch b/w silver print photograph showing Amelia Earhart signing books at the Lazarus Department Store Bookshop circa 1928 -- with two later copy-print photos of same. There has been some deterioration to the original photo (see our photos) but it is still a striking image of the young Earhart with her classic cloche' flapper hat. The original has "Amelia Earhart" written in ink in the bottom of the image but while the "E" looks pretty good, the "A" do...esn't and so we are Not claiming the photo to be autographed. (See what you think!)
From the collection of Lulu Slocum Teeter and her daughter Mary Teeter. Lulu was the manager of the F. & R. Lazarus department store bookshop in Columbus, Ohio in the "golden era" of such stores, from 1926 to 1950.
