Promising American actress (1913–1970) whose career was cut short by alcoholism. She retired from films in 1942 and spent a large part of the remainder of her life in mental institutions, dying of cancer at 57. Gorgeous oversized vintage matte-finish 10.25 x 13 photo of Farmer getting her curls attended to, signed in fountain pen, “For the lovely hair, Frances F.” Affixed to a slightly larger mount. In fine condition, with lightly trimmed edges. Originates from the estate of Hollywood hairdresser Wally Wallace. Farmer is quite scarce in any format, and this marvelous, breathtaking portrait might be the finest we have encountered. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
