Can someone here identify this lovely lady?

Can someone here identify this lovely lady? I know these were taken by ace English photographer, Cornel Lucas, because his stamp is on the back of all three, but that's ALL I know.

He was most prominent in the late 1940s and early 1950s, so this lady is likely from that era.

Please post if you can help, or share with someone who you think might know. Thanks in advance.

  • Looks a bit like Pier Angeli, but I'm guessing.

    A good guess, and Lucas DID photograph her (see http://profane-angel.tumblr.com/post/48770093949/pier-angeli-by-photographer-cornel-lucas-her), but I would say surely no. Thanks anyway!

    Anyone else?

    I am at home and the photos are at work. But how would this help you?

    Humour me, and we'll see what happens.

  • I am fairly confident Bruce probably already looked at the back.

    Yep pretty sure of that too.

    Unless Lawrence, you are expecting to see something like this:

    I have been crazy busy with all that is going on, but will try to get to this. But I will be astounded if seeing his stamp helps you.

    And David, that WAS extremely clever!

  • Please forget about the image request Bruce. Too many doubters so I have lost interest in following up on this.  
  • Why should you let others impact your interest?  This was to help Bruce, right?
  • I had an insane week, but we have great auctions on to show for it!

    I will get the back of one shot and post it next week.

    Of course I will attempt to help out Bruce, as I have done in the past. With this matter I will disclose any findings ( if any ), in due course, with or without my request for the image.

    Sorry for asking for something that apparently appears to others to be a fruitless request. A close up of the attached stamp, and for anything else that may appear on the plain white back section of one of the images would be great. At your convenience Bruce. No hurry whatsoever.  
  • We tried today, but won't have it until tomorrow. I hope the anticipation does not exceed the actual event!

    Thanks Bruce, but don't hold out too much hope. My idea is more than likely a long shot, but if I don't follow up on it, I would never know if something may have come from this or not.

    I did not try that website, but there is a Cornel Lucas Facebook page, and I posted there, and nothing!

    Bruce
    My dealings with them has been through info@cornellucas.com. Have received two replies so far and currently I am awaiting a third reply at the present time.


  • I have emailed info@cornellucas.com inquiring about the image three times.

    The first response was '' Sorry but we don't know who that is, is the photo stamped on the back? 

    Second reply was ''Lovely set of pictures"'

    No response to my third email with the stamped image on the back of the photograph.

    Sorry, but I tried. Whoever the female is she isn't very well known, even to the people who were involved in the taking of the photograph.

    What do you do Bruce when you cannot identify an image? Advertise it as an unknown female from the late 1940s or 1950s. You cannot even state with 100% certainty that she is even an actress can you?

  • Again, I am more than happy if you simply identify her as the future Mrs David..if my time machine was working.
