While the world gives Lupe Velez all the love for her fast lifestyle and high profile suicide, it was actually Delores Del Rio that was the first Latin actress to cross over into mainstream Hollywood and break down the barriers for Velez to follow. She was one of the most beautiful women of her time and this image is one of her best we have ever handled, presenting her looking glamorous with a cigarette in hand as the ultimate caricature of a liberated woman! Stamped on the back by noted photographer Elmer Fryer, the photo presents well with note to some pinholes from editorial use and a small rip on the far left border.
