Fred Astaire By David Stone Martin

Another fine example of David Stone Martin’s illustration style, taken from a series of photos by Gjon Mili during the recording sessions for “The Astaire Story”. It was originally released in 1952 as a limited edition box set of L.P.s with photos, illustrations, and also signed my Fred Astaire. The music is quite extraordinary, featuring Astaire vocalizing and tap dancing with the Oscar Peterson Trio.
