It's the fall of 1935, and you're the entertainment editor of a newspaper.

You can buy this 8" x 10" original for $36, and 10 percent of that will go to the famed St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital. To purchase, go to https://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Original-CAROLE-LOMBARD-Laughing-Portrait-1935/224016468012?hash=item34286c082c:g:QFwAAOSwnI5exIDP.
