Excellent pencil and watercolor costume sketch of Mona Freeman for the 1951 comedic film ''Darling How Could You!'' in which the Paramount Pictures young starlet plays Amy Grey as the daughter of Joan Fontaine. Drawn by famed 8-time Academy Award winning costume designer Edith Head, with two sketches in watercolor and one in pencil on one piece of sketch paper. Sketch is unsigned by Head which is common for this era. Initialed and approved by directed Mitchell Leisen and producer Harry Tugend at lower left corner, with a cost breakdown of making the costumes on verso. Sketches are drawn on heavy watercolor paper measuring 14.5'' x 23'', with very minor toning along edges, else near fine.
