Possible.  Could be a 'Ruth' though, particularly in that small size.

Definitely agree, your photo is quality. I love that photo of her. $350 is a deal for that actually. I would have expected that to be over $500.

Thank you. It goes with this portrait, by Frank Tanner from Sudden Fear, 1952. Signed in 1953. The 1962 still is by Don Christie or Phil Stern.

Those are both very nice. Thanks for sharing.

I don't think so. There are so few of these and I place weight on Tom's vintage expertise. There are some small traits that can be seen years later - very unlikely.

The RR example has been seen by their in house authenticator (Bill White I think), PSA and possibly a specialist as well.

That’s what I thought but figured I would post my pictures of it anyway.
