LEONARD NIMOY [ca. late-1960s] Oversized profile portrait

[Np, ca. late-1960s]. Vintage original 10 3/4 x 13 1/2″ (28 x 34 cm) black-and-white double weight glossy silver gelatin photo. General use and wear, with significant creases at three corners and 1 1/4″ (3 cm) tear near bottom right corner. Very good.

Leonard Nimoy started his long and illustrious career in the early 1950s in television and remained a TV favorite for more than fifty years. He became immortalized by his character Spock in the sci-fi series Star Trek, which led to other film roles and then a series of Star Trek films. This unusual profile was likely used for make-up purposes.
