Condizione: Very good. - An 8-1/8 inch high by 10 inch wide glossy black & white vintage photograph depicting the Hollywood actress, dancer & showgirl Joan Fulton, with her back to the camera, centered between 6 chorus girls. The number "1505-P19" is printed in white along the bottom right of the image and Universal's credits are printed along the bottom margin. There is minor creasing to the corners and three holes have been punched along the top border. Very good. This a vintage publicity photo, not a reproduction, sent out to newspapers and periodicals of the period. Text from a printed press release tipped onto the verso reads: "NO WONDER THE WEST WENT WILD! Joan Fulton (center) and her chorus are entertainers at the Bismark Saloon, frontier oasis of the Dakota Territory in the new Universal-International Cinecolor western film, 'The Michigan Kid.' Starring Jon Hall, Victor McLaglen, Rita Johnson and Andy Devine, the film is an action epic directed by Ray Taylor, veteran of 25 years of thrill-films, and packs everything in its footage from the Sioux Wars and stagecoach hold-ups to barroom entertainment. That's where Joan comes in - backwards.".

Hatton would pass away on February 2, 1946, just 20 days before the film's release, due to complications from his acromegaly. From the archive of noted Hollywood still photographer Ray Jones.
