Original publicity portrait photograph of Jack Palance, circa 1951

Los Angeles: Twentieth Century-Fox, Circa 1951. Vintage oversize borderless publicity portrait photograph of actor Jack Palance, circa 1951. With a printed mimeo snipe affixed to the verso, along with the stamp of Twentieth Century-Fox crediting photographer Gene Kornman.

Palance made his first big break on Broadway, as Marlon Brando's understudy in "A Streetcar Named Desire," directed by Elia Kazan. Kazan later cast the actor in "Panic in the Streets" (1950), a thuggish role that garnered him praise and set the precedent for the screen personality for which Palance would become known—tough, evil, and villainous.

10.5 x 13.25 inches. Very Good plus, with light creasing to the corners.
