PRODIGAL, THE (1955) Publicity photo ft. 12 starlets

$150.00

Hollywood, CA.: Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, [1955]. Vintage original 8 x 10″ (20 x 25 cm.) black-and-white double weight glossy silver gelatin photo. Fine.

Twelve Southern California beauties, including ones of varied ethnicities, climb the ladder to stardom after having been selected to play supporting roles in the Lana Turner-starring epic THE PRODIGAL. A wonderful demonstration of classic Hollywood movie studio public relations gimmickry.

Photo has the original text on verso naming each girl as well as the Advertising Administration stamp dated Sept. 21, 1954.
