Description

Luminous oversized Lombard portrait

American actress (1908–1942) who enjoyed great success as a popular screen comedienne in the 1930s, and who became Mrs. Clark Gable in 1939. On January 16, 1942, the plane in which Lombard was traveling en route to a war bond rally crashed into Mount Potosi near Las Vegas, killing all 22 aboard. Radiant vintage matte-finish 11 x 14 photo of a seated Lombard gazing dreamily upward, signed and inscribed in green ink, “For Peggy Dean, a great deal of love, always, Carole.” Small edge tear (confined to margin), a few unobtrusive creases, and some scattered subtle silvering, otherwise fine condition. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
