Handsome matte-finish 7 x 9 portrait of Chaplin in a head-and-shoulders pose, affixed to its original 10.25 x 13.25 mount, boldly signed and inscribed on the mount in fountain pen, “To Louis Persinger, Best regards from Charlie Chaplin.” Framed to an overall size of 11 x 14. In fine condition, with a slight horizontal crack along the image border below the first line of the inscription. Originates from the collection of American violinist and pianist Louis Persinger (1887–1966), who trained at the Leipzig Conservatory and later taught at Juilliard, mentoring the likes of Yehudi Menuhin, Ruggiero Ricci, and Isaac Stern. A wonderful early image of the great Hollywood star with an interesting entertainment association. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
