1910's Studio photo of the classic "Vamp" Theda Bara in one of her most famous poses of all time wearing black and playing the part that made her a household name. Posed with a crow (playing off her vamp image) the photo was issued by Underwood and Underwood and has two different stamps on the back. One of the few completely original images of Bara from the height of her fame, this one is crystal clear off the original negative and in nice shape overall.
