About This Item
This American opera coloratura soprano's debut in 1926 at age 19 made her the youngest prima donna to premiere at the Metropolitan Opera (as gilda in Verdi's "Rigoletto"), and briefly made her the toast of the town -- heard on the radio and seen and heard in some of the first short sound films; but her decline was just as meteoric as her rise and her career fizzled and sputtered afterward. PS [Peyton], 8" X 10", n.p., 1926 May 10. Fine. Formal half-length portrait of the 19-year-old star, boldly signed and dated in black ink in a light area near the bottom. Dated about three months after her February 17, 1926 debut.
