Early photograph of Raoul Walsh

Raoul Walsh (subject)

N.p. N.p., Circa 1920. Vintage oversize double weight photograph of director Raoul Walsh, shot when he was still working as an actor, notable in that he does not yet have the eyepatch that he would later become known for.

Walsh suffered the loss of an eye while in a car accident on location for a film in 1928, after which point he retired from acting and moved behind the camera as a director instead.

Photo 7 x 9 inches, 11 x 14 inches with margins. Near Fine on thick textured paper.
