THE CHINA MAIL, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 21, 1934

New and exclusive closeups of Libby Holman, widow of Smith Reynolds, who is returning to the stage in a comeback attempt as a "blues singer" after a long absence marked by romance, mar- rlage, the tragic death of her husband, a murder indictment, the birth of a son, a fight for a share of her multimillionaire' husband's estate, all of which have given her an authentic background for her blue-singing.
