BRINGING UP BABY (1938). Vintage original 7 ½ x 9 ½ 19 x 24 cm. Sepia-tinted double weight matte finish still photo, USA. Katharine Hepburn, Cary Grant, Charles Ruggles, May Robson, Walter Catlett, Barry Fitzgerald, dir: Howard Hawks; RKO. Popular crazy caper of an heiress who inherits a baby leopard and causes a series of adventures, accompanied by a resigning paleontologist. Perfectly cast were Cary Grant and Katharine Hepburn in what is considered tops in screwball comedy. Grant was said to not be fond of this leopard — which is apparent in this image — and Hepburn, who nearly had a fatal accident with the animal (the trainer stepped in to handle), appears to be treating it with trepidation. Still is coded “BU-PUB-A116″. Photo is slightly trimmed for publication, NEAR FINE. It must come back in the same condition as it was sent. AUTHENTICATION: My name is Walter Reuben.
