Rare vintage publicity photo of Red Skelton and Lucille Ball for their musical comedy film, ''Du Barry Was a Lady'', based on the Broadway musical of the same name. Black and white photograph shows Skelton wearing a comedic expression as he's embraced by Ball. Glossy 10'' x 8'' photo features an MGM backstamp crediting Clarence S. Bull as the photographer. A typed blurb on verso reads in part, ''When red heads meet it means fun, frolic and romance...features...dancing by Gene Kelly, songs by Virginia O'Brien and nonsense...'' Tape and pencil notation to verso with minor creasing, else near fine.
