The most celebrated caricaturist of our time, Al Hirschfeld
created art for fifteen U.S. stamps. All of his drawings
include the name of his daughter, Nina, and this caricature
of silent film star ZaSu Pitts is no exception, making
Hirschfeld the first American stamp artist to include
hidden writing in his designs. |
