Aubrey Smith. Note that the classy English widow was played by Rosalind Russell. She had been signed by MGM the year before, and had played minor roles in several MGM movies. The following year, she got some starring roles, and she would become one of MGM's leading actresses of the 1940s, and one of their most successful actresses during World War II!

Important Added Info: Note that glass slides were designed to be put in a special projector that would project the image onto a movie screen (they use exactly the same concept as 35mm slides). We have taken a digital photo of each that shows the general condition of the overall slide and holder, and we have also made a digital scan that shows the glass image well, but does not show the holder (except as a dark outline). Condition: very good to fine. The theater that used this slide wrote the days the movie was playing in the play dates section at the bottom of the glass. Otherwise, the glass slide itself is in nice condition and the cardboard holder has some minor smudges (as can be seen in our super-sized images). Learn More about condition grades
