Between the Covers

Unbound. A group of 61 loose color snap shot photographs, each measuring 4" x 6". A few captions on the rear in blue magic marker. Fine. A group of photographs taken during a birthday party for comedian Richard Pryor sometime around 1999. The legendary comedian had stopped performing and was confined to a wheelchair due to advanced symptoms of multiple sclerosis. The party was attended by family members, such as his son Richard Pryor, Jr., his daughter the actress, Rain Pryor, and his wife and manager Jennifer Lee. Also in attendance were a number of celebrities, posing with Pryor, his daughter and each other, including Jim Carey, Jennifer Lopez, Paula Poundstone, writer director Judd Apatow, and singer Ricky Bell (of New Edition). A nice collection of noncommercial images.
