Description
18" (46 cm.) x 15" framed. Six sequential photographs depict various moods of young Shirley Temple as she draws, and then finally, delightfully, holds up her finished design. Dry mounted on original backing, which is signed Peter Stackpole in lower corner. Stackpole was one of the first staff photographers at Life Magazine, from 1936-1960, and many of the famous photographs of young Shirley Temple were his work, though few are credited. This signed example of six prints is quite rare.
