Description

Gorgeous image of “Rita Cansino”—before she was Hayworth

Uncommon vintage matte-finish 3.5 x 5.5 German photo of Hayworth very early in her career, signed and inscribed in the lower border in fountain pen, "To Hermine Meyer, sincerely, Rita Cansino." In fine condition, with slight irregular ink adhesion. Hayworth appeared in a number of small roles for Fox Studios under her birth name, Margarita 'Rita' Cansino, then adopted her familiar stage name (which was adapted from her mother's maiden name) soon after her move to Columbia Pictures in 1937. One of just a handful of items we have offered signed with her given name.
