About This Item

[1932], [1932]. Good. - A group of five sienna-toned gelatin silver photographs of the Hollywood movie star Tallulah Bankhead pictured with the young Dickie Moore. Each photograph measures 14 inches high by 11 inch wide. Four of the images are printed on glossy buff photo paper and a fifth, a duplicate of one of the others, is printed on heavier buff stock which yields a softer hued tone. Those two identical images depict Tallulah Bankhead in a black pant suit over a white turtleneck seated on the stoop of a doorway with the young blond Dickie Moore seated in her lap. Smiling brightly, the child actor is wearing a striped shirt and shorts with leather shoes. There is a tiny tear to the top edge of the photo printed on glossy paper with a small spot of rubbing. In a third photograph, Dickie Moore is seated on the stairs of that same stoop, centered between Tallulah Bankhead and another young woman (likely also an actress), offering each a white carnation. A deeply creased piece from the bottom right corner of that photograph is ready to tear away and has been reinforced with archival linen tape from the verso. In a fourth photograph, Tallulah and Dickie are seated side by side on the stairs of a stoop, each eating an ice cream cone. There is a tiny tear to the top edge of that photo and a small spot or rubbing to the left of the image. The top right corner is deeply creased. In the fifth and last image, Tallulah is striding along a path between hedges in front of a house, holding Dickie by the hand. The boy is looking up at her as he eats his ice cream cone. The top and bottom right corners of that photograph are deeply creased. In addition, all of the photos are also slightly creased, with minor wear to the edges and slight curling though these could easily be flattened out. Good.

A friend of Tallulah Bankhead's, Hollywood child actor Dickie Moore was filming "Blonde Venus" with Marlene Deitrich at the time these photographs were taken. Dickie was also frequently featured in the "Our Gang" series during that period.

The lovely Hollywood movie star Tallulah Bankhead appeared in several movies between 1931 and 1932: "Tarnished Lady", "My Sin", "The Cheat", "Thunder Below", "Make Me A Star", "Devil and the Deep" and "Faithless".
