Collection of Louis Armstrong Performance Photographs and Autographed Print

A collection of vintage black-and-white gelatin silver prints capturing jazz legend Louis Armstrong and his All-Stars performing live. The set includes three landscape-oriented action shots on stage and one prominent portrait-oriented print. The portrait appears to feature a handwritten signature or inscription on the upper left, potentially signed by Armstrong himself. The photographs are printed on medium-weight paper with various borders. The imagery features Armstrong with his characteristic trumpet, dressed in formal stage attire (tuxedo/suit), accompanied by his ensemble including a pianist, bassist, and drummer. One image prominently features the stylized text 'Louis Armstrong' as a set graphic in the background. The condition of the pieces varies; the large signed portrait shows significant creasing, light refraction suggests a glossy or semi-gloss finish, and there is visible edge wear and slight curling. The landscape photos appear to be in better structural condition but show some typical silvering or fading consistent with mid-20th-century photography. These items likely date from the 1950s or 1960s, reflecting high-quality professional concert photography of the era. The presence of a signature, if authenticated, significantly elevates the historical and collectible value of this archive.
