Hollywood, California: Metro Goldwyn Mayer, 1930. Gelatin silver print. Image is 12 1/8 inches by 9 1/4 inches on a 13" X 10" sheet. With Hurrell's blindstamp in the lower right margin and his Hurrell/MGM credit stamp on the verso. Also on the verso is MGM's blurb slip which reads: "MISS SPRINGTIME -- Dorothy Jordan, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer featured player, finds the first indications of spring among the blossoming trees in California." George E. Hurrell (1904-1992) became MGM's chief portrait photographer on January 1, 1930, and although he left the studio 16 months later, he continued to do freelance photography for all the major studios (including MGM) until he became chief photographer for Warner Brothers in 1940. He was noted as the most succesful "glamour" photographer in Hollywood, and that particular skill is especially noticeable in this portrait of silent screen actress Dorothy Jordan 1906-1988). The photograph is in superb condition: clean, crisp, and bright.. Original. Single Sheet. Fine. Illus. by George Hurrell. 12 1/8 inches by 9 1/4 Inches. Photo.
