Description

Incredibly rare portrait of the Good Witch of the North

Extremely rare vintage matte-finish 8 x 10 photo of Burke as Glinda, the Good Witch of the North, signed and inscribed in fountain pen, “To darling Cady, All the lovely things in the world to her, dear lady, Billie.” In fine condition, with light rippling, small diagonal scratch to the upper background, and two acid-free cloth tape remnants along top edge of reverse from previous framing. Although Burke is considered a prolific signer, signed photos of her most recognizable character remain exceedingly difficult to obtain—we’ve offered a mere handful of examples in the past decade. A simply ideal portrait. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
