Scarce vintage 5x7-inch black and white portrait, boldly signed and inscribed in black fountain pen in the 1930s. In good condition for its age, with a few minor stray ink flecks to the border. Great character actress Cora Witherspoon was the quintessential haughty society type or harridan housewife, as in Libeled Lady (1936), Madame X (1937), Marie Antoinette (1938), The Women (1939), Dark Victory (1939), Charlie Chan's Murder Cruise (1940), and W.C. Fields' The Bank Dick (1940).
