An Original Vintage 6 1/2" x 8 3/4" [17 x 22 cm] News Photo (Learn More) Bebe Daniels was an actress from the 1910s to the 1930s. She had a long and fascinating career! She was born in 1901, and by 4, she was a stage actress, and had a leading stage role at the age of 7, and started in movies soon after. When she was 14, Hal Roach picked her to be Harold Lloyd's leading lady in the "Lonesome Luke" shorts! Cecil B. DeMille signed her away to Paramount, and she was one of the few major silent stars who had no trouble transitioning to sound (she was also an excellent singer), and she became a bigger star in musicals like "Rio Rita" and "42nd Street". In 1930, she married Ben Lyon, and after her marriage, she made few movies. Some of her other movies include: Counselor at Law, Why Change Your Wife?, and Bumping Into Broadway. She passed away in 1971 at the age of 70. Important Added Info: Note that this is an odd photo, because it shows Miss Daniels wearing an elaborate costume, having been chosen to ride on the Oregon float in the parade of the Elks Lodge in Los Angeles in 1921. We don't understand the "Oregon" connection, because she was born in Texas! She was chosen from 200 beauties as the most beautiful of them all. Note that this news photo measures 6 1/2" x 8 3/4" [17 x 22 cm]. Condition: very good. The photo has slightly darkened but is otherwise in pretty good condition. Learn More about condition grades
