Photo still from the 1943 movie

Rosalind Russell and Fred MacMurray starred in this 1943 fictionalized biography of Amelia Earhart (here called Tonie Carter). First, a flag waving preface about air warfare in the Pacific; then flashing back to her first solo flight in 1932; whirlwind romance with sexist ace pilot Randy Britton; advanced training; a transcontinental race; world fame; first, aborted round-the-world airplane flight; and her famous disappearance. This film popularized the theory that Earhart's disappearance was connected with secret work for the U.S. Navy. Double matted 12" x 14"; photo approximately 8" x 10"
