When actor Robert Montgomery moved his family west, they all wanted a house that looked like the colonial farm they had left behind in New York—so they built one in Beverly Hills. His wife, Elizabeth, wrote about the process and the finished result in a 1938 issue. About this photograph, taken by Fred Dapprich, she reported, “The favorite room in the Montgomery ménage is the library. It is filled with all the elements of comfort. Mr. Montgomery has settled into a giant couch (over ten feet long) designed especially at his request.”

I highly recommend browsing their store for the tons of vintage star photos they offer.
Prices range from $180 to $1,500 for various sizes and frames. So, if you have a few spare dollars lying around, remember me next Christmas.
