Pat Boone Performance Publicity Photograph Collection

This collection consists of black and white gelatin silver prints, likely dating from the late 1950s to mid-1960s. The primary focal point is a central portrait of singer and actor Pat Boone, who is depicted seated while holding a vintage dynamic microphone. He is dressed in attire characteristic of the era, including a light-colored sport coat with dark piping on the lapels, a slender necktie, and a pocket square. The lighting is dramatic and studio-quality, emphasizing his features and formal poise. Accompanying this portrait are broader shots of a large auditorium or event space, possibly a crusade or concert venue, showing vast rows of folding metal chairs arranged for a significant assembly. The stage in the background features what appears to be a religious or ceremonial altar flanked by Christmas trees, suggesting a holiday-themed event or broadcast. The photographs are printed on semi-gloss paper and appear to be in good vintage condition, though some minor curling and edge wear are visible on the periphery. There are no immediate signs of significant foxing or heavy creases on the main portrait, and the tonal range remains crisp, demonstrating professional-level photographic processing and preservation of mid-century entertainment memorabilia.
