<p>[QUOTE="Vintage Maven, post: 1393977, member: 11768"]I’m more of a 20th century pop culture/icon collector, but, 2019 was a very good year for me, and I made many acquisitions, in both vintage and antique. I focus on “many items” that catch my eye (For example, I have a vintage record collection that dates back to 1950, about 90% of that collection is in mint condition, and that goes with “most everything“ I collect, depending on it’s rarity), but I’m especially interested in fine original photography prints. I made a number of additions to my collection, and all of them are my favourites, so it is difficult to choose. Two that stood out this year are a 1956 un-retouched original proof of Audrey Hepburn by Richard Avedon, I have six original Hepburn prints throughout my vintage original collection ranging from 1951 to 1963, one of which I own the negative for. The second is a 1918 signed print of Mary Pickford taken by photographer Fred Hartsook. I acquired the Pickford from a collector who lived a mere few blocks away from where I live. I also own several original photos from Mary Pickford’s personal collection. ❤️Maven[ATTACH=full]222193[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]222194[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
