DescriptionAlthea Gibson in 1956 by Fred Palumbo (NYWTS).jpg
Althea Gibson, half-length portrait, holding tennis racquet / New York World Telegram & Sun photo by Fred Palumbo. It's been modified fro the original to cropp out a pillar in the left and clean up the remainder, which seems in line with this being a newspaper photo.

As Adam lives in Britain, which makes it incredibly easy to acquire copyright in his works, he grants, if needed, an irrevokable license to use this work however you see fit. He requests attribution where possible, and realises that "where possible" means that that request is not legally enforcable.
