WWII Andrews Sisters Signed Photo 

Measuring 10.25" x 8.25", No place, undated. A black and white Army Air Force photograph of the Andrews Sisters, taken by photographer Paul D. Rusten. Signed "Maxene", "LaVerne", and signed and inscribed "Patty/to Ace sincerely Andrews Sisters." The three women are photographed seated at an Army mess table, likely during one of their tours. The signed photograph is accompanied by a small copy of the same photograph, measuring 5" x 4". With light toning, bumping, and creasing to the edges and corners of the signed photograph. Light soiling and minor imperfections. Boldly signed.

The Andrews Sisters was a swing musical group consisting of sisters LaVerne Sophia (contralto), Maxene Anglyn (soprano), and Patricia "Patty" Marie (mezzo-soprano). The group rose to popularity just prior to the Second World War and is very much still associated with war times. Their 1941 song "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy" was a hit and throughout the war, they entertained the Allied Forces in Africa, Italy, and the U.S. The Andrews Sisters were also used to encourage the purchase of war bonds. They continued performing after the war but formally broke up the group in 1953.

This item comes with a Certificate from John Reznikoff, a premier authenticator for both major 3rd party authentication services, PSA and JSA (James Spence Authentications), as well as numerous auction houses.
