American actress (1908–1942) and wife of Clark Gable who enjoyed great success as a popular screen comedienne in the 1930s; she tragically passed away in an airplane crash when returning from a war bond rally. Exquisite vintage matte-finish oversized full-length portrait of Lombard in a flowing, off-shoulder dress, tastefully double-matted to 8 x 13, and boldly signed and inscribed in fountain pen, “For Dotie Dear, who I adore, Love Carole.” Framed to an overall size of 14.5 x 19.5. In fine condition, with two diagonal creases to the upper left corner (one passing through her face), in no way detracting from its overall beauty. An ethereal example of one of Hollywood’s most sought-after Golden Era stars, further enhanced by its strong signature and uncommon size. The James Collings Collection. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
