Framed Sammy Davis Jr. Black and White Print with Autograph

This item is a framed black and white print depicting the legendary entertainer Sammy Davis Jr. in a dynamic performance pose. The image captures him mid-movement, arms raised, with his head tilted back, conveying an energetic stage presence. He is dressed in a light-colored fedora, a dark long-sleeved top with a v-neck, light-colored trousers, and appears to be wearing a necklace with a prominent, possibly floral or star-shaped, pendant. A light-colored, ornate belt or sash is visible around his waist. The background is predominantly dark, suggesting a stage setting or spotlight effect. Below the main image, in the bottom left, the name 'Sammy' is printed in an elegant, cursive script. In the bottom right corner of the print, there is a visible autograph, which appears to be 'Sammy Davis Jr.' in his distinctive signature style, adding significant value and authenticity to the piece. The print is housed within a simple, dark-colored frame, likely wood or a composite material, with a narrow profile. There is a white border or mat surrounding the actual image, separating it from the frame. The overall condition of the print appears good, though there might be some minor scuffs or dust visible on the frame and possibly the protective covering (glass/plexiglass) based on the image quality. The black and white photography contributes to a classic, timeless aesthetic, characteristic of promotional materials or artistic representations from the mid to late 20th century, likely dating from the 1960s to 1980s based on his peak performing years and fashion. The craftsmanship of the framing seems standard, designed to present and protect the print. The autograph is a critical distinguishing feature, elevating this from a mere print to a collectible piece of memorabilia.
