Description: Hollywood, 20th Century-Fox Player (1940's). (1940's). - A 10-1/4 inch high by 8 inch wide black & white vintage glossy photograph depicting the young Jennifer Jones from the waist up. Attired in a rose decorated white crochet blouse, the curly haired actress leans forth with her chin resting on her hand. The number "6739" is printed in white within a dark rectangle at the right of the bottom margin. "Jennifer Jones - 20th Century-Fox Player" is printed along the bottom margin. There is minor creasing to the bottom left corner and three holes have been punched along the left edge. Very good.
