Important Added Info: Note that the snipe on the back of this news photo has a really cool quote about Hepburn, saying that the person speaking was irritated by her "putting on airs" at first, but then found out she was "one helluva dame". Surely, the quote is from either Humphrey Bogart or John Huston, but the snipe does not say! If anyone knows who said it, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Condition: good to very good.
