Original b&w wire service photograph--not a reproduction. HERE'S A PAIR OF PHOTOS ABOUT MAE WEST and people who imitate her and people who starred with her. Confused? Well, at top photo are two images: at left is Mae West and Cary Grant in a famous scene from "She Done Him Wrong" in 1933, and at right is Ann Jillian and Rod McCary reprising the roles for the TV movie, "Mae West," which was broadcast in 1982. At the bottom are Mae West and W.C. Fields in a photo sent in 1986 to accompany a story about how motion picture ratings board is more concerned these days with violence and drug use than sex and nudity. What Fields has to do with nudity -- or even sex -- is beyond me! But the caption explains their presence. Anyhow, photos are in great shape and make a fine addition to your collection! DATED: April 11, 1982 (top) September 29, 1986 (bottom) DIMENSIONS 7 x 9 (top) 6 1/2 x 8 1/2 (bottom) DESCRIPTION (top) EXCELLENT; very high-gloss finish; red grease pencil marking along all margins; caption attached at back; publication notes at back; discoloration on back. (bottom photo): EXCELLENT; smooth finish on thin laser paper; "Mae West" underlined in ink in caption. NEWS PHOTOS are pieces of history; they were transmitted via wire or radio to newspapers to accompany important stories of the day. As such, they are not "original" photos struck directly from the negative. Yet they are "original news photos" in the sense they are using an original photo from the point of transmission, and they are from the time an event occurred. Therein lies their value: they're historic and often hard to find. We do not make, nor sell, reproductions of these archival photos.
