VIRGINIA O’BRIEN DEMONSTRATES PROPER SUNBATHING TECHNIQUES (1943) Oversized photo by Clarence Bull
$125.00[Los Angeles]: Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, [1943]. Vintage original 10 x 13″ (25 x 32 cm.) black-and-white double weight glossy silver gelatin photo. Minor wear, fine.
Virginia O’Brien, unique deadpan songstress and comedian, demonstrates proper beach sunbathing techniques — though she remains at the MGM photo studio as photographed by Clarence Bull (his ink stamp on verso). The typed blurb tells us Virginia’s technique in how to properly tan at the beach. This is number three in a series featuring O’Brien and and was used to publicize her 1943 film Ship Ahoy.
