Triptych Portrait Easel with Framed Iredell Painting - 1930s

Elaborate triptych portrait easel constructed of black embossed Morocco-grain leather (or leatherette) over wood. Opening reveals a painted pendant portrait of Mary Pickford -- seemingly a painted Iredell photo, perhaps from a postcard or small print, and signed "Aineé" by the artist. "Made in England" is impressed in the leather on the back. This piece was a gift from Mary to Charles Schwartz -- one of Mary's United Artists lawyers.

Lightly tinted Mary Pickford sketch photo by Russell Iredell. She once noted that this photo was her "favorite" -- though that distinction probably changed like the wind. Hand-signed in ink. This print is smaller than the more common one seen above. I am unsure if it was a postcard or just a different sized print. ca. 1930s. From Mary's Estate.
