Auction History Result 8j696 MYRNA LOY 8x10 fan photo '30s wonderful head & shoulders portrait of the beautiful star! Date Sold 2/21/2012 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm] Fan Photo (Learn More) Myrna Loy was an actress from the 1920s to the 1980s. She was born Myrna Adele Williams in 1905, and amazingly, she made 78 movies between 1925 and 1933, and she FINALLY got her big break when she signed with MGM, and the next year she made both "The Thin Man" and "Manhattan Melodrama", and the rest, as they say, was history! But what took Hollywood and film goers so long to recognize her amazing beauty and talent? In her early years of making movies, her "exotic" look led her to sometimes be cast as an Asian or Polynesian! She remained a major box office star for over two decades, and she had wonderful chemistry with ALL of her leading men, including William Powell, Cary Grant, Clark Gable, and many others! Some of her other movies include: The Best Years of Our Lives, Mr. Blandings Builds His Dream House, The Thin Man, Cheaper By the Dozen, and countless others. She passed away in 1993 at the age of 88. Important Added Info: Note that this still is printed on a slightly thinner paper that has a slight "linen-like" stock. These fan photos were sent to theaters, and we don't know if the theaters passed them out like heralds, or posted them on their walls. They may have been created to be put in the many metal and reverse painted glass frames that were so popular in the mid-1930s. If anyone knows more about these, please e-mail us and we will post it here. Condition: good. There is some faint water staining scattered around the edges. Learn More about condition grades
