Description: Up for sale is a 8” X 10” 1926 Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, "Scandalous Actress Attempts Suicide" Dramatic PhotoNote: Watermark does not appear on actual photo. Information contained on LOA:The life of Evelyn Nesbit started out like a rags to riches fairy tale, but unfolded like a Greek tragedy. Her looks and personality attracted men and publicity like few before, but she was immature and sexualized at a young age which made her ill equipped to handle it all. After affairs and scandals that loomed her entire adult life, she finally attempted suicide herself in 1926 and is seen here attended by physicians in obvious pain and despair. This is a rare image that stand in stark contrast to the stunning portraits of Thaw that made her the face of her generation. Issued by Wide World Photos and stamped on the back with a paper caption as well, the photo has some indentations from news room use, but looks great. A powerful image from one of the most talked about women of her generation.Size: 8x10Designation: Vintage 1Condition: 4.5/5Quality: 5/5Overall Grade: 9.5/10Please excuse any shadows appearing in the photos.
