After James Dean died, he became an instant cult icon in Hollywood. When his film "Giant" came out the next year, the industry pulled out all the stops to generate interest in the film. At the red carpet premier, stars came out in droves including a young blonde bombshell named Jayne mansfield who was just starting to make a name for herself and appeared with her new boyfriend Mickey Hargitay for the film. A crystal clear work of photographic art, this is quite possibly the best 1956 image of Mansfield we have seen and it presents well with a large paper caption on the back.
