Original 9 1/2 inch x 7 1/2 inch Portrait of DIANA NAPIER in the 1932 Allan Dwan Drama HER FIRST AFFAIRE, based on the play by Frederick J. Jackson & Merrill Rogers.
Portrait by Frank Buckingham with his stamp on the reverse. Buckingham entered the film industry as a dark-room assistant in 1929 at the Nettlefold Studios, Walton-on-Thames. He started as a still-cameraman in 1930 and left Nettlefolds in 1936 to open a West End Portrait Studio. He re-entered the film industry in 1940 with British National Films.
A headstrong young girl (Ida Lupino) falls completely for a writer of trashy novels, and insinuates herself into his household, all to the chagrin of her erstwhile fiancé. He conspires with the author’s wife (Diana Napier) to show the girl how foolish she’s been.
The portrait is in very good condition. The pencil writing on the reverse has resulted in faint indentations to the portrait.
