Very Fine-
Columbia, 1946

This collection includes nine vintage original black-and-white, silver gelatin, single-weight photographs from director Charles Vidor's acclaimed Film-Noir drama, which features Rita Hayworth and Glenn Ford. The set comprises six behind-the-scenes shots and three scene stills. Among them is a photograph of director Charles Vidor with his two stars, as well as a playful image of Hayworth and Ford laughing at the comedic antics of cast member Steven Geray. Five of the six behind the scene photographs have a paper snipe attached to the back. Please note that the photographs may show signs of wear, including corner creases and/or border creases. The grade provided reflects the overall condition of this rare collection of images.

Coined "The Love Goddess" by the press, actress Rita Hayworth was best known for her performance in this layered noir picture. Playing a femme fatale, Hayworth solidified her status as a star in her first major dramatic role that also featured memorable musical numbers, charismatic costumes, and celebrated cinematography.
