Look Magazine film achievement award plaque presented to Rosalind Russell in 1947, measuring 6.5 x 10, featuring an inset "Look Award" medallion and engraved plaque, "Rosalind Russell, Look, 1947, Film Achievement Award." In very good to fine condition, with some dings to the wood and tarnishing to the plaque. Accompanied by a modern glossy photo showing Russell holding this plaque along with other famous recipients of Look awards. In 1947, she earned an Oscar nomination for her role in the adaptation of Eugene O'Neill's play Mourning Becomes Electra. It was taken for granted that Russell would win the Academy Award—to the point that she began to rise from her seat just before the winner's name was called—but Loretta Young was named Best Actress instead. This film achievement award from Look Magazine represents a fine consolation prize, awarded to one of the finest actresses of the age.
