1932 "Spanky and Cotton", Little Rascals Studio Photo; Early Spanky McFarland

Description: Watermark does not appear on actual photo. Up for auction is a 8” X 10” - 1932 photo of “Our Gang”/“Little Rascal” star Spanky McFarland and Cotton. Photo represents signs of the times. Presents well with a few condition issues. Information contained on LOA:1932 Large photograph from the "Our Gang" film titled, "Spanky and Cotton." One of the more racist of all the shows, it not only pictures the black actor "Cotton" shining the shoes of his white counterpart (young Spanky McFarland), but the theme of the show was that Spanky thinks Cotton was turned into an actual monkey during the film. The photo is clear and bold with a date stamp on the back and despite some creasing and wear, the quality is perfect. A crazy piece of Hollywood history with intense racial overtones that is being offered here for the first time ever.Size: 8x10Designation: Vintage 1Condition: 1.5/5Quality: 5/5Overall Grade: 6.5/10 Please excuse any shadows appearing in the photos.
