POLAROID PORTRAITS
SIGNED BY THE STARS
Rare Autographed
Candids Of Celebrities
Shape The Dazzling Face Of A Century
HE sexy sixties, swinging seventies
and dissipated eighties brought the glamorous superstars of Hollywood
and Vine to Babylon by the Hudson. Tim Boxer was on the scene
to interview and photograph the icons of an era of sex, drugs and
rock and roll. As assistant and ghostwriter to fabled New York
Post gossip columnist Earl Wilson, Tim covered the glitterati
at film premieres, Broadway opening nights and a sophisticated nightclub
landscape that is now history.
Tim was armed with a notebook
and two cameras. With his Nikon he photographed the major showbiz
names, which were published in Time, Newsweek, People, Life,
and books and magazines around the globe. He captured Mafioso
Joe Gallo cutting his wedding cake, a world exclusive shot
that appeared on the front page of The New York Times, New York
Post and Daily News—on the same day!
With a Polaroid he made instant
candids of celebrities. And all readily signed their one-of-a-kind
portraits.
Among the autographed photographs
in this unique collection are such extraordinary legends as Andy
Warhol, Jacqueline Onassis, Elizabeth Taylor, Truman Capote, Leonard
Bernstein, Gloria Swanson, Sammy Davis Jr., Telly Savalas, George
Burns, Gig Young, Henny Youngman, Mamie Van Doren, Ginger Rogers,
Richard Boone, Richard Burton, Yitzhak Rabin, Martha Graham, Bob
Hope, Pearl Bailey, Otto Preminger, Cliff Robertson, Gregory Peck
and Arthur Miller.
Getty Images distributes Tim Boxer’s
celebrity photos to publications worldwide. Martin Scorsese
has included several photographs by Tim Boxer in his documentary,
George Harrison: Living in the Material World, that was shown in two parts on HBO
in October 2011.
