  1. I have an 8 x 10, sepia, James Abresch Studio photo of Pilotto as Scarpia in Tosca, signed and dated June 20, 1946 New York. It is one of over 200 signed opera photos I recently acquired. I am putting all of them on my eBay store (stevenowli_0). Your site is very informative. Thanks. Steve Nowlin
