An Original Vintage Theatrical Deluxe 5" x 7" (8x10) Movie Still (Learn More) Theda Bara (born Theodosia Goodman, but she was given the much more exotic stage name of Theda Bara, which is an anagram of "Arab Death") was the leading sex star in the mid 1910s. Unfortunately, her "fall" was as quick as her "rise", and by the early 1920s, her career was pretty much over (although old friend Hal Roach gave her some parts in his comedies in the early 1920s). But in her time, she was as great a sex symbol as there ever was! Some of her film roles include: Cleopatra, A Fool There Was, and Salome. She died in 1955 at age 69. Important Added Info: Note that this still has an ink stamp signature of Theda Bara, but it has NOT been personally autographed (signed) by her. Apparently, during the height of her popularity, the studio sent out these stamped photos to fans, no doubt hoping they would be fooled into thinking they had been hand signed! Also note that this still measures 5" x 7", but it has not been trimmed. Note that this is a deluxe still printed on double weight paper stock. Condition: good. There is a diagonal crease across the lower center of the still, running through Bara's arm and the dog's nose. Learn More about condition grades
