Description

Bogie presents a photo to “Vi–the Indestructable,” his African Queen wardrobe mistress

Vintage glossy 7.75 x 10 photo of an older Bogart in glasses and a bow tie, signed and inscribed in fountain pen “For Vi–the Indestructable, Many thanks, Humphrey Bogart.” In very good condition, with scattered creases and surface marks, light rippling to emulsion, and tape and adhesive remnants to bottom corners, some in close proximity to signature and inscription. The photo’s recipient, Violet Murray was a longtime wardrobe mistress who worked on over 20 films during the 1950s and 1960s, including The African Queen and The Lion in Winter. Great association between Bogie and an important crew member from his Academy Award winning film. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
