Carl Muscarello autograph
Carl Muscarello is better known as the 'Kissing Sailor'. Alfred Eisenstaedt of 'LIFE' magazine took the photograph of a sailor kissing a nurse at the Times Square celebration on August 15, 1945, at the end of World War II. The photograph was one of many Eisenstaedt took that day, and he didn’t bother getting the names of anyone. Only after seeing the proofs did he realize that he had captured a decisive moment. On the 50th anniversary of the photograph, the couple was identified as Edith Shain and Carl Muscarello. This item is an 11x14 b/w reproduction of the famous photograph taken on VE Day 1945 in Times Square, New York City signed in person by Carl Muscarello. It has been professionally double matted to an overall size of 14x18 and it is ready to frame.
