Ca. 330 x 252 mm. Signed by the photographer at lower right. Slightly worn and creased; crudely trimmed at left margin, just affecting one word of inscription; minor remnants of adhesive to verso. American soprano Mary Mellish made her Metropolitan Opera debut in 1918 as a choirboy in Meyerbeer's Le Prophčte and sang comprimario roles there until 1923. Published in 1941, her memoir, Sometimes I Reminisce, recounts some of her experiences singing alongside Geraldine Farrar and other Metropolitan Opera stars.
