A true pop culture rarity that has never been seen before, offered here is a terrific 8” x 10” glossy color photograph featuring the historic second lineup to “Saturday Night Live”. After Chevy Chase left the show in late 1976 to pursue a movie career, and young and promising comedian was brought on to the cast by the name of Bill Murray (all other original cast members stayed on). Though his debut was rocky, with Murray often forgetting lines and improvising through segments, the Murray-infused cast of SNL became a fan favorite, with many critics often citing the lineup as the best in SNL’s illustrious history. Offered here is a terrific color image of that legendary lineup, beautifully hand signed by all featured cast members in blue ink, including John Belushi, Gilda Radner, Bill Murray, Loraine Newman, Jane Curtain, Dan Aykroyd and Garrett Morris. While there is a possibility of another existing, our research concludes that this is the first and possibly only authentically signed group photo from this era of SNL in existence. Some trivial surface impressions, otherwise in overall fine condition. Accompanied by a full Letter of Authenticity from PSA/DNA.
