Auction History Result 1s0071 KATHLEEN BURKE camera original 8x10 negative 1930s Paramount portrait in fur-trimmed gown! Date Sold 2/20/2022 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. A Camera Original Photographic Negative (measures 8" x 10" [20 x 25 cm]) (Learn More) Kathleen Burke was an actress during the 1930s. She was an 18 year old dental assistant in Chicago (and a part-time fashion model, who had also done some radio and stage acting) and was one of 60,000 women who submitted her photograph for a contest Paramount Pictures held for the role of "The Panther Woman" in Island of Lost Souls in 1932. But her exotic looks made her hard to cast, and she never really had much success (her best roles were in The Lives of a Bengal Lancer with Gary Cooper, and The Last Outpost with Cary Grant, both in 1935) and in 1938, at the age of 25, she married for the third time and had a child and retired! She passed away in 1980 at the age of 66. Important Added Info: Note that this is a negative that was in the camera when the photographer shot the photo (see below for more on this). We have put a scan of the negative that shows the "positive image" (in addition to a scan of the negative image). REMEMBER THAT WHAT YOU RECEIVE WILL BE A PHOTOGRAPHIC NEGATIVE, NOT A POSITIVE IMAGE LIKE YOU ARE SEEING. However, we will provide the winning bidder of this auction that positive image scan that is both high quality and not watermarked (on request to the winning bidder, and only the winning bidder). We scanned it, so that bidders could see just how high quality it is. What are camera original negatives? These often (but not always) have retouching on the emulsion side, and negative numbers written in India ink on the front. Depending on the studio some 8x10 negatives may be trimmed or have numbers or information embedded into the sides of the negative. Obviously, camera original negatives are far more rare (and far more desirable) than studio-issued ones, but both are very high quality. Condition: good to very good.
