An Original Vintage Photo in Reverse Painted Glass Frame (measures 10" x 12" [25 x 30 cm]; opening measures 7 1/2" x 9") (Learn More) Claudette Colbert was a top Hollywood actress from the 1920s to the 1960s. She was born in Paris, but came to New York City as a preteen, and went to public schools. After graduating, she appeared in more than a dozen Broadway plays, and made her first films for Paramount Pictures in their Astoria, Queens studio. She quickly became a star and was soon a major star. Some of her movies include: It Happened One Night (winner of the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), Midnight, The Palm Beach Story, Bluebeard's Eighth Wife, Cleopatra (the 1934 version, in the title role), Since You Went Away (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), Private Worlds (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), and scores of others! She passed away in 1996 at the age of 92. Important Added Info: Note that this photo has a FACSIMILE autograph that is within the printing (it has NOT been personally autographed). Note that this is one of eight "reverse painted glass frames" we are currently auctioning, in eight separate auctions. Each has an image of a different star in it, but those are "picture frame photos" that have little value. The real value is in the frames themselves! These were very popular for a time in the 1930s and 1940s, because they took a tremendous amount of time and effort to create, and they often had great art deco designs painted onto the glass by hand. They are obviously fragile, and not many of them survive, and many of the ones that do survive have condition issues. This is a rare opportunity to acquire any of these eight reverse painted glass frames, and of course, the new owner can substitute an image of their choice for the current image (either a family photo, or a different celebrity). These frames make for very striking displays on the wall! Condition: very good. Learn More about condition grades
