This is a beautiful black and white portrait of Davis when she was a young girl probably just starting out as an actress. She is wearing a cool, seersucker, short sleeve dress with very attractive collar, and brooch in the center. The dress is belted at the waist and shows off her youthful figure. It is a three-quarter length picture with Bette leaning back on a fence, arms folded at waist behind her, darker background. Her face is stunning, of course, and she looks into the camera with those gorgeous big eyes and red lips, her hair shimmering from the backlighting. A fantastic portrait of the legendary actress. The inscription across the center reads, "Happy Birthday...Bette Davis."
