Katharine Hepburn (RKO, 1930′s).
A
casually beautiful portrait of the young star in a striped art deco
bathing suit, ready for a day at the beach. Just a tremendous Golden Age
of Hollywood artifact that appears to have been published in an issue
of Motion Picture Magazine. The exact year is unknown, but handwritten
text to verso seems to link this to a publicity campaign for a Hepburn
movie that never completed filming, “Three Came Unannounced.” original source: eBay / via

Walter Bird :: “Aphrodite”. Original vintage photoetching, 1938. Signature stamp, verso. Photoetchings are similar to photogravures/relief etchings. Bird and his contemporaries used this technique as a medium for original expression, rather than as a method of reproduction./ src: Liveauctioneers
