Lot Description
[Photography] Bourke-White, Margaret (American, 1904-1971) Pakistan's Jinnah
Gelatin silver print, printed 1960s. Portrait of Pakistan's founder, Muhammad Ali Jinnah (1876-1948). Multiple Time Inc. and Life Magazine stamps to verso as well as assorted notes in both ink and pencil. Stamps to verso utilize zip codes so they date to post-1963. In its original mailing envelope from Time Incorporated addressed to the American Museum of Natural History and noted in pencil: "Photo of Ali Jinnah for case #79 possibly" in an unknown hand. Clues from the envelope and the presence of zip codes lead us to assume the image was printed in the 1960s. .
