LONDON - Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie’s early photos were a big hit at a Profiles in History vintage glamour photography auction.
Modelling shots of Angelina Jolie when she was 15 were displayed at a vintage Hollywood photo auction last weekend. A spokesperson reveals her pictures were sold separately and became highlights of the sale.
“They garnered much bidding interest. They sold individually for over $2,500 each - more than six times their expected sale price,” Hollywood.com quoted a spokesperson of Profiles in History as saying.
Some of the Harry Langdon shots were featured in a lot that also included rare shots of Raquel Welch, Halle Berry, Richard Burton, George Clooney and Farrah Fawcett. These went under the hammer for $122,400.
Other highlights included an iconic shot of actress Jean Harlow posing on a bear rug, shot by George Hurrell for Vanity Fair, which sold for $60,000.
