Another vintage postcard

Yesterday, I posted a bit about some vintage Louise Brooks postcards for sale on eBay. Among those for sale, here is another of my favorites. As Brooks is not wearing her customary bob, its a little bit unusual. Nevertheless, she photographs quite lovely. Don't you think?
The vintage Russian postcard I also mentioned yesterday has also shown up again. Here is a link to its eBay listing. The seller's page says this card dates from 1928.

  1. Louise was one of those 'one in a million' type subjects for a photograph or a movie camera...its no accident we are still enchanted and enthralled by her over 80 years after most of these pictures were taken.

  2. I can't remember if you've posted this picture of her or not:

    Also, here's an interesting sketch of Lulu and Schigolch by Dave McKean:
