Lot 98
Björling, Jussi (1911-1960) Swedish tenor, proclaimed the successor to Caruso. A master of French and Italian repertoire, Björling sang nearly every tenor role, gaining immense popularity across the globe before his sudden death at age 49.
Signature ("Jussi Bjorling"). One page, 5½ x 3½", Seattle, n.d. Signature in blue ink on the front of an envelope from the Olympic Hotel, Seattle. In excellent condition, the only flaw is a small smudge above the end of Björling's signature -- likely made by the great man himself.
Estimated Value $200 - 250.
