An Original Vintage Deluxe 10 1/4" x 13 1/4" [26 x 34 cm] Still (Learn More) Marion Davies was an actress from the 1910s to the 1930s. Some of her movies include: Cain and Mabel, Going Hollywood, Blonde of the Follies, Janice Meredith, When Knighthood was in Flower, Little Old New York, Zander the Great, and Marianne. She is well remembered for being the longtime mistress of William Randolph Hearst, and Orson Welles largely based the Susan Alexander Kane character in Citizen Kane on her, but, unlike that character, she was actually a talented comedienne who would surely have been a success if she had not had Hearst pushing her career! AND Doris Duke was an American heiress, socialite, horticulturalist, and art collector from the 1930s to the 1980s. Doris was the daughter of tobacco tycoon James Buchanan Duke (owner of Lucky Strikes and other major cigarette brands). After her father's passing, Duke inherited his entire fortune and was known as "the richest girl in the world", and later found herself involved in journalism, philanthropy, competitive surfing, and wildlife conservation. Important Added Info: This cool wedding photo was taken in 1937, when Marion Davies' longtime cook got married, and Davies attended.
