MOORE, Grace 1898-1947

Large bust-length photograph signed in full, dated 1932, and inscribed "To Sam [...] Merry Xmas from your 'Dubarry' Grace Moore... "

With name of New York photographer to lower left margin. 346 x 273 mm.

Somewhat worn, soiled and stained; left margin with small tear and upper corner slightly lacking; verso slightly browned with remnants of former mount.

Moore appeared in the short-lived Broadway operetta The DuBarry by Karl Millöcker in 1932.

"Moore had a glamorous personality, earning the American accolade ‘star of stage, screen and radio’, and a sensuous, substantial voice, though it lacked technical finish." Max de Schauensee in Grove Music Online.
