67. CRAWFORD, Joan. mounted press photograph by george hurrell with signature. [1937?]
£298
photograph and clipped signature mounted together, 245 x 360mm. A little staining to signature card, otherwise in very good condition.
the photograph is by the leading hollywood photographer george hurrell and has the caption on the reverse “Joan crawford’s latest
portrait...showing the metro-goldwyn-mayer star as she appears as a peasant girl in her new starring metro-goldwyn-mayer picture. photo by hurrell.”
Although we have not found an exact match for this image we suspect that it was a promotional still for the 1937 film The Bride Wore Red.
