Photograph inscribed and signed: "For Albert/Sincere best
wishes/Betty Grable". B/w, 7x9. Publicity photograph for the 1945 musical
Diamond Horseshoe, in which she plays a showgirl. The coming
attractions for this movie announced: "Grable's lush, lucious and in love in the
musical that outstrips them all." Chosen by the GIs in WWII as their number
one "pin-up girl", Betty Grable (1916-1973) appeared in a series of
musicals and dramas in the 1940s and early 1950s. Fox publicity
insured her legs with Lloyds of London for one million dollars. Grable

her divorce, Grable was successful as a replacement for Carol Channing in
Hello, Dolly. Creased at bottom left corner. Overall, fine
condition.
