SAMUEL GOLDWYN STUDIOS ART DEPARTMENT (1923) Photo

[Los Angeles: Samuel Goldwyn Studios, 1923]. Vintage original 8 x 10″ (20 x 25 cm.) black-and-white glossy silver gelatin print photo. Minor wear at the bottom left edge corner, about fine.

Very rare view of the Goldwyn Studios scenic art department from the studio’s first days, being established in 1923. Artists are seen constructing miniatures in cardboard for study of sets designed for full-scale build. There is a typed blurb on the verso, as well as an ink stamp date of Sep. 18, 1923.
