Condizione: Very Good. Original b/w single weight film still photograph of actress Martine Carol as "Lucrece" in the French-Italian film, "Lucrece Borgia" (1953), here under the British title, "Lucretia Borgia." Film credits snipe affixed to the verso, with 6 OCT 1955 rubber-stamp. Carol was sultry and French, with a personal life that rivaled her on-screen adventures.

Very Good, small hole and tear at the top edge, small bruise to recto, faint creases, and brief tear and crease to credits snipe.
