Hi, do you know if there is any place where I can find and buy this picture?
My sister's birthday is coming and I know she would love this as present.

I'm sorry, I don't know if it can be purchased... I've looked online before with no luck. The only thing I can tell you is that it's been published in a collection of Life magazine photos... possibly a Top 100 photos collection? If you were a diehard, you could buy the book and cut out the page to frame it. :)

This foto. is one of my favorites . When you decide you do not have enough, just look at it.
