A very unusual press pass consisting of black text on red paper which is laminated within clear plastic oval measuring 2x4-13/16”. One side reads “Press Pass 42nd National Automobile Show/New York Coliseum..December 8-16, 1956.” Opposite side reads “For The Exclusive Use Of Invited Press Representative No. 1.” Item was originally issued to Charles D’Onofrio who began his 40+ year career as a CBS TV cameraman in the 1950s. Twice he was awarded an Emmy for his work. Light minute scratching over the clear plastic but still displays Exc. First we’ve seen.
