CRAIG RUSSELL IN DRAG [ca. 1980] Set of 4 photos

New York, [ca. 1980]. Set of four vintage original 10 x 8″ (25 x 20 cm.) black-and-white photos. Three are double weight, with holograph notations on verso of photographer Sylvia Plachey (?). One single weight with photographer stamp on verso of Ken Howard and  identified Russell as Carol Channing. Overall just about fine or better.
