Vintage borderless portrait photograph of actress Norma Talmadge, circa 1920s. With the insignia of New York photographer Irving Chidnoff on the bottom right corner of the image. Talmadge was born into near-poverty in New Jersey, working as a model as a teenager to help make ends meet. Her talent attracted the attention of Vitagraph studio executives, and she soon moved to Hollywood with her mother, where she appeared in a number of successful films, most notably the 1917 silent film "Panthea."

His studio remained open until the mid-1950s, servicing stage actors, classical musicians, and society figures of New York. 7 x 9 inches. Near Fine.…
