Gelatin silver print photograph, 160 x 110 mm, signed in pencil Sally Gilmour ; verso with faint wet stamp, possibly of the Herald Sun newspaper, although only the words Copyright Melbourne, Australia are discernible; short crease at right-hand edge, otherwise very good; the verso has light foxing. This studio portrait of Sally Gilmour, leading British ballerina of the 1940s, was taken during the Ballet Rambert s 1947-49 tour of Australasia. Gilmour signed the photo and presented it to a Melbourne fan, from whose collection we acquired it.
