__________________________
I was going through an old chest left behind by my parents with items and photos going back 4 generations.
I came across an original photo exactly as shown here in this article and is signed by her on the lower right side of the front.
To the best I can see it was signed in 1937.
I have no idea who, why, or where this photo came from but my father was born that same year here in Toronto.
If you’d like to see the photo or the autograph just let me know and I would gladly set up a way to send a picture of the pictue.
Just email, call or text 416-553-9270
