Important Added Info: Note that this test photo (see below) is printed on a thinner non-glossy paper, but that is not surprising, because such test photos were never distributed, and were solely for internal studio use. Note that this is a test photo used to show one of the many costumes that Miriam Hopkins wore during this movie (the stars would put on each costume and stand next to a board with the details of when that costume was used in the movie, and then they would try on a different one and repeat the process, until they had tried on all their costumes; I wonder if major stars of today have to endure this same ritual?) Also note that this still measures 8 1/4" x 10" [21 x 25 cm]. Condition: very good. Learn More about condition grades
