Charming original 1930s 8x10-inch sepia-tone portrait, lounging at home and looking lovely, boldly signed and inscribed in blue ink later in life.  In very fine condition.  Memorable in such classic films as The Informer (1935), The Last of the Mohicans (1936), Bulldog Drummon'd Secret Police (1939), Pride and Prejudice (1940), and Lifeboat (1944), sophisticated leading lady Heather Angel made numerous forays into the horror genre, starring in the Sherlock Holmes thriller The Hound of the Baskervilles (1932), Mystery of Edwin Drood (1935), The Undying Monster (1942), and The Premature Burial (1962).  She also lent her distinctive voice to characters in two Disney animated fantasy classics, portraying Alice's sister Lorina in Alice in Wonderland (1951) and Mrs. Darling in Peter Pan (1953).
