[Jazz & Song] Eckstine, Billy. (1914 - 1993)
Signed Photograph
Signed 8 x 10 inch photograph of the American singer of ballads and bandleader of the swing era. Eckstine's smooth baritone and distinctive vibrato broke down barriers throughout the 1940s, first as leader of the original bop big-band, then as the first romantic black male in popular music. Wear and mounting traces around blank border, else fine. (6507)Signed Photograph Jazz
