Nina Simone (subject)
Herb Snitzer (photographer)

N.p. N.p., Circa 1959. Vintage borderless photograph of Nina Simone in performance, circa 1959. Stamp of photographer Herb Snitzer on the verso, along with a photograph agency label.

Snitzer took several photographs of Simone during her legendary concert hall debut at Town Hall in New York, basis for Simone's live album released by Colpix in 1959. This photograph appears to date from that period.

6.5 x 9.5 inches. Very Good plus, with a few small creases and brief wear at the bottom right corner.
