An Original Vintage Color 4x5 Photographer Issued Transparency (measure 4" x 5" [10 x 13 cm]) (Learn More) Ava Gardner was an actress from the 1940s to the 1980s. Surprisingly, Hollywood did not recognize the talents of this beautiful actress for years, because she had a long string of tiny or uncredited roles before she became a star! Some of her movies include: Mogambo (nominated for the Best Actress Academy Award for this film), The Killers, On the Beach, The Barefoot Contessa, Bhowani Junction, and many others! She was married three times to famous celebrities: Mickey Rooney, Artie Shaw, and Frank Sinatra. She also struck a friendship with Ernest Hemingway, who, after witnessing Gardner swim naked in his pool, told his staff "the water is not to be emptied"! She passed away in 1990 at the age of 67. Important Added Info: Lovely close up elegant pose of this legendary beauty. Hesse obviously liked this shot of Ava as it was the one he provided to magazines and exhibits showcasing his personal favorite images. This transparency is being sold for personal use only! No rights given or implied! Note that this is a "photographer-issued" transparency that was produced by the photographer (Paul Hesse) but is not the camera original. What is a transparency? They are produced by the studio and are very high quality and were created in quantity and sent to media outlets or other places that had need of the very highest quality image for reproduction purposes (in newspapers, magazines, or elsewhere).
