Extremely rare vintage 8x10-inch black and white restrike publicity portrait in her prime, boldly signed and inscribed for noted collector Gene Hunt in black felt-tip pen in the 1980s. In good condition. This is one of the only signed portraits we have ever encountered of patrician beauty Dorothy Tree, who is remembered by horror, sci-fi and fantasy buffs as one of the Count's three undead brides in Dracula (1931). She was elsewhere noteworthy in The Mystery of Mr. Wong (1933) with Boris Karloff, The Dragon Murder Case (1934), The Case of the Howling Dog (1934), Madame Du Barry (1934), The Mysterious Miss X (1939), Confessions of a Nazi Spy (1939), Charlie Chan in City of Darkness (1939), Abe Lincoln in Illinois (1940), The Man Who Lost Himself (1941), Nazi Agent (1942), Hitler-- Dead or Alive (1942), Crime Doctor (1943), The Men (1950), and The Asphalt Jungle (1950).
