JOAN CRAWFORD WIG

A red blonde wig custom made for Joan Crawford for an unknown MGM production. The wig is made of human hair and hand tied one strand of hair at a time to a lace mesh with silk bands in the interior to give the appearance of a scalp. Studio wigs at the time were custom made and fitted to measure by the star's head and hairline. An MGM label "193" with an original corresponding Max Factor box labeled "193 Red Blonde 3/4 7" J. Crawford." The wig was acquired from MGM upon the closure of its hair and wig department. Accompanied by a canvas wig block. Categories: Joan Crawford
