Popular big band leader (1904–1944). In 1942, Miller joined the U.S. Air Force and organized the Glenn Miller Army Air Force Band to entertain the troops. In December 1944, on a flight from England to Paris, the plane Miller was traveling in disappeared over the English Channel and was never found. Vintage matte-finish 5 x 7 photo of Miller posing with his instrument, signed in fountain pen. In very good condition, with a touch of faint rubbing, tiny brush to last name, and light, unobtrusive vertical bend touching signature. R&R COA.
