Caption:

My Madonna (Metro, 1915). One Sheet (27 X 41). , Born a London cockney, Muriel Harding, or Olga Petrova as she came to be known, was the epitome of vaudeville trickery. Colorful and eccentric, Petrova billed herself as a great Russian actress. Despite the ruse, or possibly because of it, she found tremendous success in vaudeville, becoming a favorite in the West End. During her seven years in film, Petrova starred in more than two dozen pictures and wrote the script for several others. A staunch feminist, she acted in and wrote roles that portrayed independent, strong women. Leaving the entertainment business in 1920, Petrova spent her fifty year retirement in the South of France and Florida, never dropping her faux Russian accent and dying at the age of ninety-three. Offered here is an extremely rare stone litho one sheet with a luminous Petrova. Minor flaws include a bottom border tear, fold separation with small paper loss, and a top right corner bend. Fine+.
