Rare Original Photo: Dean Martin "Dino" to Eddie Albert - $55 (commerce)

Photo has a heavy cardstock matting & back that are adhered together. The matting has staining & a few superficial tears, however, there is nothing that interferes with the handwritten note from 'Dino' 'To Eddie', 'Of course one of yours is missing, mine. _____ - ' 

The photo itself, has lost some of its original luster. A professional cleaning, should return it to excellent condition.

I believe it was taken on the set of 'The Dean Martin Show' during Season 1.22 February 17, 1966. 

This photograph indeed was owned by Eddie Albert. When Mr. Albert passed away, his son Eddie Albert jr., acquired his father's belongings. Sadly, the following year, he too, passed on.

My late husband & I purchased this photo at the highly respected auction house, California Auctioneers, in Casitas Springs, CA. That particular auction featured hundreds of items which came from the estate of Eddie Albert jr.
