That snipe is foreign to me



"Bolero" was a substantial hit for Carole Lombard (and co-star George Raft) in the early months of 1934 -- in fact, Carole had no regrets over choosing to star in "Bolero" at Paramount rather than be loaned out to Columbia for a little bus picture. (That "bus picture" eventually became multiple Oscar winner "It Happened One Night.")

Here's another image of Lombard and Raft from the film:



The good news: There's a snipe on the back of this original still. The bad news: It's not in English.



Pretty certain that's Spanish, but I could be wrong.

You can buy this 8" x 10" photo, in good condition, for $24.99. Go to http://cgi.ebay.com/CAROLE-LOMBARD-BOLERO-VINTAGE-MOVIE-30s-PHOTO-180L-/380347116545?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item588e746c01 to learn more.
