Rare and very early 3.25 x 5.25-inch black and white English postcard portrait, dating to her stage career, signed in black fountain pen in 1902. In good condition for its age, with light edgewear. Veteran British stage and film character actress Eva Moore was the battleaxe par excellence, remembered by horror buffs as manic, malevolent Rebecca Femm in James Whale's horror classic The Old Dark House (1932).
