Insignia of photographer Albert Witzel from the negative at the bottom corners. One with the stamp of King Features Syndicate to the verso. Witzel Studios was founded in 1909 and rapidly rose to… success as one of Hollywood's foremost portrait studios and society photographers. Witzel occasionally took on freelance assignments for Fox Studios, work which gradually became less frequent as studios established their own portrait and stills departments. All but one of Witzel's portrait studios were closed following the photographer's death in 1929. Both photos 7.5 x 9.5 inches. Near Fine.

No binding. Zustand: Fine. Set of two vintage original 8 x 10" (20 x 25 cm) black-and-white double weight photos (one glossy, one matte) and one vintage original 7 x 9" (18 x 23 cm) double weight glossy gelatin silver photo. Overall fine. Aimee Elizabeth Semple McPherson (1890-1944), also known as Sister Aimee or Sister, was a C…anadian-born American Pentecostal evangelist and media celebrity in the 1920s and 30s, famous for founding the Foursquare Church. McPherson pioneered the use of broadcast mass media for wider dissemination of both religious services and appeals for donations, using radio to draw both audience and revenue with the growing appeal of popular entertainment and incorporating stage techniques into her weekly sermons at Angelus Temple in Los Angeles, CA. McPherson made her mark in a very religious America: back in the 1920s, she was among the first megachurch profiteers. She was accused of fraud many times but continued preaching and raking in money. She was a known bootlegger, con artist, and known to run through men. Both 8 x 10" portraits are likely ca. 1922-23, as they appear to have been used in newspapers concerning her 1926 disappearance. One portrait, by famous photographer Albert Witzel and signed on front, shows McPherson in a preaching position. A 1926 date is handwritten on verso and newspaper clippings of the publication are attached. The other portrait is by Mauray of LA (as signed on front) and shows her with a tambourine, likely from the same period. The third smaller photo has a newspaper blurb describing an accident she was in while on her way to a presentation in Iowa and is likely for her 1927 tour, as it includes the fact she caused nationwide publicity with her 1926 disappearance.

[WESTERN MOVIES]. Three 9" x 7" promotional sepia images of Western Movie star Buck Jones, hand signed by the photographer, Albert Witzel. Marked on the lower front of each photograph is "Witzel /Hollywood. These framed photographs were given by his mother, Mary Gebhard, to a friend with a penciled inscription on the rear that r…eads: "Charles Fred Gebhard (Buck Jones - Movie Star) From Mrs. Mary Gebhard - 1937 or '38." A very interesting and important inscription, as very few ever used Buck's real name. The three photographs are framed to a total size of 27" x 13." Buck Jones was born Charles Frederick Gebhard in 1891 and died in 1942. On November 28, 1942, he was a guest of some local citizens in Boston at the famed Coconut Grove nightclub. Fire broke out and nearly 500 people died in one of the worst fire disasters on record. Jones was horribly burned and died two days later before his wife Dell could arrive to comfort him. Buck Jones starred in several cowboy movies mostly in the 1930s. Provenance: From the Buck Jones Estate with a letter of provenance from the family. Fine condition.
