1958. The caption in the December 22 issue of LIFE magazine reads:
Jean Harlow always looked as if she were being bent backward over a sofa. She was a platinum blonde who played roles full of fun She glued on her slinky white dresses and slept in an all-white bedroom whose rugs matched her hair. A star at 19, she met untimely death at the age of 26.
