Nifty 8x10-inch black and white portrait, in her prime and definitely up to no good, boldly signed and inscribed in black felt-tip pen in the 1980s. In good condition, with some negligible surface scuffs, invisible when the photo is viewed head-on. Joan Woodbury, brassy leading lady of the 1930s and 1940s, made a number of contributions to the horror, sci-fi and fantasy genres, with roles in Bride of Frankenstein (1935), The Rogue's Tavern (1936), King of the Zombies (1941), The Living Ghost (1942), and Time Travelers (1964).
