American actress (1906–1935) best remembered for her appearances in such comedy classics as Monkey Business, Horse Feathers, and Another Fine Mess. Though her death from carbon monoxide poisoning was ruled an accident, suspicious circumstances led to a number of theories of varying plausibility, including speculation that she was the victim of a ‘hit’ ordered by gangster ‘Lucky’ Luciano. Adorable matte-finish 5 x 7 photo of Todd and her dog, signed in fountain pen, “Thelma Todd & Gallant,” adding a small paw print sketch under the signature. In fine condition, with some light silvering to edges. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
