Image copyright search: Merle Oberon at home in the 1950s

By Will Carleton August 28, 2013 Will Carleton

Hi Will – Please can you kindly place the following on your site
Can anyone please help me trace the copyright owner of photo of Merle Oberon at home in the 1950s? Tony Duquette Inc in California sent me the photo but there is no information on the back of their print. We want to use it in a book.
Please contact Liz Moore (liz AT eclipse.co.uk) if you can help.

Why is it important?

At the turn of the 20th century, there was vast growth in press agencies and photographers due to the massive thirst for images in newspapers. Many are still in existence but others have been sold, absorbed or simply disappeared, effectively leaving gaps in the history of this industry… many agency offices were bombed during the WWII London Blitz resulting negative and print files being water damage from the hoses quenching the fires …most archives were in the building basements.
