The collection, on a variety of artistic and portrait postcards, some hand-colored, includes many beautifully detailed autograph musical quotations and some amusing inscriptions. On the verso, most of the postcards are addressed to the (sister?) collectors Ramona Imaz Otaño and Patricia Otaño; many of those presumably earlier addressed to Patricia have been changed to Ramona's name, suggesting some swapping or perhaps a little jealousy!\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"\"\u003e\u003cbr style=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"\"\u003eThe figures who have signed the postcards include singers Lina Cavalieri \u003cspan style=\"\"\u003e(1874-1944) [facsimile signature on hand-colored card], Adele Stehle (1865-1945), Andres Perello de Segurola (1874-1953), \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"\"\u003eCarmelita Bau Bonaplata (1870-1911) \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"\"\u003eand Alice Zeppilli (1885-1969); composers \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"\"\u003eNapoleone Cesi, Giuseppe Frugatta \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"\"\u003e(1860-1933), \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"\"\u003eLuigi Romaniello (1860-1916) (two postcards), \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"\"\u003eSpyridon Samaras (1861-1917), \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"\"\u003eArthur Napoleão dos Santos, (1843-1925), Amintore Galli (1845-1919) -- a particularly elaborate AMQS with a long inscription -- \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"\"\u003eGoffredo Cochi, and Jole Gasparini; violinist \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"\"\u003eLeon Fontova (1875-1949); actresses Nieves Suarez, Clotile Dumas \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"\"\u003e(1882-1969)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"\"\u003e, and Virginia Fabregas \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"\"\u003e(1871-1950)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"\"\u003e; and painter Ricardo Lopez Cabrera; among many others!\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"\"\u003ePostcards each 3.5 x 5.5 inches.
