Fleisher, Leon. (1928–2020). Autograph Signature as a child prodigy. A scarce childhood signature from the superb pianist who after his debut under Pierre Monteux with the New York Philharmonic at age 16, dubbed by the conductor "the pianistic find of the century." 12 x 9 cm.

In 1964, after making a remarkable series of recordings with George Szell and the Cleveland Orchestra, Fleisher lost the use of his right hand due to focal dystonia.  He continued performing and recording, focusing on and expanding repertoire for the left hand.  In the mid-2000s, through a combination of therapy and botox injections, he regained control of his right hand, expanding back into two-handed repertoire.
