An Original Vintage Theatrical 8" x 10" (8x10) Movie Still (Learn More) Carole Lombard was an actress from the 1920s to the 1940s. In her early movies, she mostly had minor supporting roles in comedies, and she was billed as "Carol", but she added the "e" as she became a major star. One of her greatest successes was Twentieth Century, where she played a girl who has never acted, who becomes a great star under the tutelage of Svengali-like John Barrymore. Some of her other movies include: To Be or Not To Be, My Man Godfrey (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), Mr. and Mrs. Smith. In the early 1930s, she married William Powell, but they amicably divorced, and several years later, she had a torrid love affair with Clark Gable, and they later married. Lombard died tragically in a 1942 plane crash when she was at the height of her career. She was just 33 years old. Important Added Info: Note that this still is undated, but because the snipe tells that she is a "Pathe feature player", and because she was only at Pathe between 1929 and 1931, we feel certain this still is from 1929 or 1930. In addition, she is referred to as "Carol", and she changed this to "Carole" very early in her career! Also note that there is a paper snipe glued on the back of the still that describes the scene on the front (it does not affect the front of the still). Condition: good to very good. There are some tiny areas of paper loss in the blank borders and some creases and scuffs scattered around the edges of the still. Learn More about condition grades
