Vintage 10x8-inch glossy black and white full-length publicity portrait from 1943, boldly signed in black fountain pen.  In fine condition, with gentle staining in the top border and a mild bend to the bottom left-hand corner, not affecting the image.  The exotic beauty is remembered by horror and fantasy fans for her portrayals of Maria in Frank Capra's Lost Horizon (1937) and Clo-Clo in Jacques Tourneur's The Leopard Man, produced by Val Lewton and released the same year this photo was signed.
