Lot Details
Signed and inscribed in pencil, verso.
Bunny Yeager (American, 1929-2014) Bunny Yeager and Her Girls at Miami Fire Department, 1955 Gelatin silver print, printed later 14-3/4 x 14-3/4 inches (37.5 x 37.5 cm) (image) 20 x 16 inches (sheet) Signed and inscribed in pencil, verso. From the collection of Grapefruit Moon Gallery Literature: P. Mason, Bunny Yeager's Darkroom: Pinup Photography's Golden Era, New York, 192-193. Toward the end of her life, Bunny Yeager found the critical acclaim that had overlooked her for much of her career, with celebrated exhibitions at galleries in Florida and beyond, and a museum exhibition at the Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh, PA. For these, Yeager reapproached her earlier work as works of fine art, creating museum quality exhibition sized prints such as the one seen here that shows a group of models hard at work polishing a truck at Miami's Fire College in 1955.
