Top edge and upper left side have a few lt. handling creases but will mat and frame VF appearance. Williams was a competitive swimmer and went on to join “Billy Rose’s Aquacade”, swimming alongside Tarzan star Johnny Weissmuller. She went on to become an MGM star in the 1940s and 1950s. Superb display item. From the collection of newspaper editor Harry McLaughlin and comes with Hake’s COA.
