Description

Associate Justice of the U. S. Supreme Court (1882-1965) from 1939 to 1962. Original vintage glossy 8 x 10 photo of Justice Frankfurter by the Hessler Studio of Washington, D.C., signed and inscribed in white ink, "For the Kenneth H. Brownes, with the good wishes of Felix Frankfurter.” Reverse bears two Hessler stamps and an affixed caption label dated to 1949. In very good to fine condition, with scattered light creasing, a bit heavier to the lower left edge. A scarce signed portrait of Frankfurter, who once famously said: 'It is a wise man who said that there is no greater inequality than the equal treatment of unequals.'
