Lot #8:

Mary Pickford Broken and Repaired Vanity Mirror

First Time To Auction

Circa 1930s. Silvered glass vanity mirror in faux tortoise shell Bakelite hand frame. The frame has been broken and lovingly repaired by Pickford or staff in homemade fashion using glue and household metal office staples. The homemade effort to preserve the piece suggests a great deal of attachment and affection for it. The mirror measures 10 x 4 x .25 in. with a gold metal "MPF" (Mary Pickford Flynn) monogram on the back. Aside from obvious damage and repair, some Bakelite is missing from the top of the frame. In vintage fair condition.
