TV GUIDE COVER PORTRAIT 1957 Al Hirschfeld ARTHUR GODFREY cartoon Eastman Dye
5.00
I am always looking for the following TV Guide Cover Portraits to buy
--
Andy Warhol Barbara Feldon Get Smart, Salvadore Dali Thumb and TV, The Munsters, Lost in Space, Star Trek and others.
I am listing TV GUIDE related promo photos from the 1950s-1970s. COLOR ones are labeled TV GUIDE COVER PORTRAIT and the B&W ones are not labeled as such. They were never sold to the public but were promo items within the industry and were sent to TV stations. These came from a local TV station. All of them measure in the 16x20 inch range. Also the color ones say on the back
"EASTMAN DYE TRANSFER PRINT".
Info I have obtained from 2 people
---one who worked in an East Coast regional office for TV Guide and another who worked for Charles P Mills (1978-1986 and by then called Professional Color) who did the Eastman Dye Transfer prints-----
indicates that these were produced in quantities of around 100 or even less due to the expensive nature of producing them.
By the late 70s, they cost Mills 0+ each to produce an 11 x 14" print (the prints were 11 x 14" and matted to be 16 x 20"). At the time, it was a state of the art process and the photos never fade.

CONDITION
- Almost all of these have some dirt, discoloration, minor stains, foxing (brown spots), and some degree of bow (not flat).
See below for more specific condition details.
ARTHUR GODFREY
--1950s undated, this issue of TV Guide came out in JAN 1957
CONDITION--this item was trimmed for framing, but the color print itself was not cut--just the outer borders of the matte; normal measurement on these is 16x20" but this one has been trimmed down to 14x18" so each side was trimmed down an inch,  displays as excellent but if you allow light to shine on the surface and tilt in the light you can see some surface imperfections (which are fairly normal for these when aging)
a very high quality Hirschfeld image done with a process that was expensive even at the time this was originally done; the equivalent of a high quality limited edition Hirschfeld print...and those can cost 00s

COMBINED SHIPPING ?
YES...I can do this
but ONLY If you follow the below instructions.
To be clear, "combined shipping" is when you buy 3 items, for example, each with a shipping charge of , but since I can ship all 3 in the same box, you get charged -12 instead of .
I cannot "combine shipping" after you have already paid.
1) DO NOT USE the cel phone app ! If you do, EBAY will force immediate payment and charge you full shipping on each item. I will not refund your money if this happens.
2) You must log into EBAY with a
browser
(Chrome, Safari etc) on your phone, computer or laptop to avoid this.
3) Put all items in your Cart and then, while in your Cart, click the "Request Total" link
Because EBAY and PAYPAL have made partial refunds so complicated, I will no longer be refunding $ if you do not follow these instructions.
