Enchanting vintage matte-finish 11 x 14 portrait of Dietrich emerging from a soft cloud of furs, inscribed in fountain pen in Hebrew and signed, “Marlene, 1954.” Blindstamped in the lower right by photographer John Engstead. A newspaper clipping from a column by Leonard Lyons is affixed to the reverse, in part: “Marlene Dietrich was at El Moroco, illustrating the Yiddish she has learned to write, for messages to an elderly woman patient at Doctors Hospital.” Two small areas of paper loss to left border and a few small edge tears and creases (all of which could be matted out for ideal display), otherwise fine condition. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
