MARTHA RAYE (1936-37) Set of 2 keybook photos

$150.00

Set of two (2) vintage original 8 x 10″ (20 x 25 cm.) double weight glossy keybook still photos, USA, near fine.

Uproariously funny Martha Raye found two occasions to pose wearing a grass skirt for Paramount publicity: first in 1936 (date stamped Dec. 24, 1936) on her own, and a few months later (Mar. 15, 1937) when she shows off to athletic coach Nick.

Though the original blurbs print on verso do not mention it, it is probable these shots are to publicize her Paramount film WAIKIKI WEDDING.
