Description

This limited edition Al Hirschfield illustration is of Martin Short from his Tony Award-winning performance in the 1998 revival of Little Me and is signed by Short, who also has earned two Emmy Awards.

Little Me is the classic rags-to-riches (and back to rags) story of a girl who grows to be Belle Poitrine.

This gicle is part of an extremely limited edition, printed on 15" x 18" hot press paper. The edition is numbered 12 of 15 and includes the official Hirschfeld Foundation embossed seal. It comes with a Certificate of Authenticity provided by the Al Hirschfeld Foundation.

The 1998 revival opened at the Criterion Center Stage Right in Times Square but closed after only 99 performances when the building owners closed the theater to remodel the building to accommodate an enormous Toys R Us store (now The Gap).
