Description

Exquisite Spurr portrait of the influential actor

Handsome vintage pearl-finish 7.75 x 9.75 portrait of Barrymore in a pensive profile pose, signed in fountain pen, “Sincerely, John Barrymore.” Blindstamped in the lower left by the photographer, Melbourne Spurr, and stamped on the reverse with publicity information for the 1927 film The Beloved Rogue, which cast Barrymore as the 15th century French poet Francois Villon. In fine condition, with uniformly trimmed edges and tack holes to corners. A superb and immensely appealing uninscribed photo of the screen legend. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
