Summary

Description Publicity photo of American entertainer, Bert Lahr, circa 1940s. (Note: Earliest record of publication found for an alternate image from the same photo-session (see bottom image of original upload) is dated 1948. However, it remains unclear if this can be interpreted as an indication of the year the image was first created.)
Date
  • Various images from this same photo-session appear to have been distributed/published numerous times over a period of at least 20 years between 1948–1968 (see original upload).
  • Earliest date stamp for distribution/publication of an alternate image from this same photo-session dates to December 27, 1948 (see bottom image of original upload).

Author It is difficult to trace the history of the image to a single author, as various versions of this image (or others from the same photo-session) appear to have been distributed numerous times by numerous publicity agencies. However, the earliest record of distribution of an alternate image from the same photo-session appears to have been by Bill Doll & Company for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (see bottom image of original upload)
