Photograph inscribed and signed: "For Doc -/Who put my
first/make-up on me./Best wishes always/Marian Nixon". B/w, 9x12. Heavy
cardstock photo. MARIAN NIXON (1904-1983), born Maria Nissinen and
sometimes billed as Marion Nixon, made her film debut in 1923 (Rosita),
and she would go on to appear in over 70 films through 1936
(Tango, The Drag-Net and Captain Calamity). In 1935,
Nixon was seen on the big screen in Sweepstakes Annie. Her other credits include Cupid's
Fireman (1923), Charlie Chan's Chance (1932) and Rebecca of
Sunnybrook Farm (1932). A. M. "Doc" Salomon, a friend of studio mogul
Jack Warner, worked in several departments at Warner Bros. before becoming
studio manager. Then he was dispatched to run the London office. Salomon
compiled an extensive collection of celebrity autographs during his nearly 30
years with Warner Bros. A V-1 rocket demolished his London studio in July
1944 and killed Salomon, but his photo collection miraculously survived. Heavy
mounting residue on verso. Surface creases. Adhesive residue on front. Unknown
stain at bottom left corner. Ink note (unknown hand) on verso. Otherwise, fine
condition.
