Mary Pickford - Strauss Peyton Photos

Hand-painted portrait of Mary Pickford in a Jeanne Lanvin dress by Strauss Peyton (signed by the fan/artist, L. Piccolo.) Gifted from the Pamela Short Collection.

Mary Pickford 8x10 photo by Strauss Peyton. Photographer's stamp on verso. My personal favorite Strauss Peyton photo in the collection, although while negative manipulation was the their thing, the retouching this one certainly has quite a bit.  1922/23. Part of NZ Photo Album.


I felt the above newspaper clipping (from a "Mary Pickford Papers" Collection scrapbook at the Margaret Herrick Library) was too interesting and amusing not to share. The blurb, bringing attention to Mary's new bob coiffure in 1928, is a "photoshopped" version of the previous Strauss-Peyton photo. Clipping is for reference only and not part of my collection.


Slightly enlarged Mary Pickford 7.75x10 photo by Strauss-Peyton (which appears to be a period copy-print.) Part of NZ Photo Album.
