Vintage publicity photograph of Buster Keaton

Beverly Hills, CA: Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer [MGM], Circa 1928. Vintage portrait photograph of Buster Keaton, very likely taken to promote the actor's move to MGM, circa 1928. French snipe and layout annotations in manuscript pencil on the verso.

Keaton's move to MGM was later described by the actor as "the worst mistake of [his] career," due to the studio's refusal to allow him creative control over his films.

8 x 10 inches. Very Good plus, with light creasing to the corners.
