Description

You can't live this close to Tinseltown without a original TV costume sketch on your wall!  What a conversation piece for parties!  Edith Head was an American costume designer who won eight Academy Awards, more than any other woman.  She spent the first half of her career at Paramount and then moved over to Universal Pictures where she remained until her death in 1981.  She received her final Oscar win for her work on The Sting.

Special Instructions

This detailed, hand-drawn costume sketch was created under the supervision of famed costume designer Edith Head, likely for guest stars appearing on The Lucy Show, the 1962-1968 TV series starring Lucille Ball that was a follow up to I Love Lucy.
