This is a very fine early vintage FILMSHOTS  photograph (5.5" x 3.5"), showing Laughton with Elsa Lanchester in a scene from The Private Life of Henry VIII. There's an excellent, clear signature in dark blue ink (not across the dark area of an image he normally decides  to use!) Overall condition is very good. RARE
