Culver City, CA: Columbia Pictures, 1967. Vintage borderless studio still photograph of Judy Geeson from the 1967 film.

From the collection of artist and author Duncan Hannah.

Duncan Hannah was a key figure in the burgeoning New York underground arts scene, befriending Andy Warhol and his superstars, Lou Reed, Allen Ginsberg, Patti Smith, Salvador Dali, and many others. A graduate of the Parsons School of Design, his paintings were exhibited in the influential 1980 Times Square Show alongside work by Keith Haring and Jean-Michel Basquiat, and several of his paintings are held in the permanent collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Joan Crawford's penultimate film, a camp favorite featuring Crawford chewing the scenery as Monica Rivers, owner and ringmaster of the Great Rivers Circus. When a spate of grisly (and flamboyant) murders happens at the circus, Rivers milks the publicity, much to the consternation of her performers, who want to know who the killer is.

7.25 x 9.75 inches. Near Fine.
