JEAN ARTHUR AS CALAMITY JANE | THE PLAINSMAN (1936) Publicity photo

[Los Angeles: Paramount Pictures, 1936]. Vintage original 8 x 10″ (20 x 25 cm.) black-and-white glossy silver gelatin photo. There are creases and scratches down the right side of the photo and a small mended tear at mid-right blank white margin edge, very good.

Jean Arthur was brilliantly cast in this Cecil B. DeMille epic adventure, the story of Wild Bill Hickock, Buffalo Bill and Calamity Jane. The original printed blurb on the verso talks about Jean Arthur’s simple hairstyle for the tomboyish character.
