EARHART, AMELIA (1898-1937). Photograph signed ("Amelia Earhart"), n.p., n.d. [circa 1932]. 166 x 121 mm. (6½ x 4¾ in.) including margins, some fading at right and lower edges, some minor creasing; matted. A candid full-length portrait of the famous aviatrix, signed on the left portion of the image. "In 1932 she became the first woman to fly the Atlantic alone. Like Lindbergh, to whom she bore a striking resemblance, she captured the public imagination, and her mysterious disappearance over the mid-Pacific on a round-the-world flight in 1937 later caused speculation that she had stumbled on Japanese preparations for war"--W.M.
