Sonja Henie photo
« on: May 11, 2013, 05:57:52 PM »
New to forum, but enjoy learning more about the older skating stars...especially legendary Sonja Henie.  Does anyone know where this photo was from.  All I can find is that it is an A.P. photo of her from 1941.  If it's an ice show, which one?  I don't think it's from a movie.


Link to story and photo:  http://www.legacy.com/ns/news-story.aspx?t=sonja-henie-superstar-on-ice&id=824

It's the first photo they show of her skating that I am most interested.

Thanks!

My mother had Sonja Henie paper dolls when she was a kid, when Sonja Henie was still skating in movies.

I collect things like that too and have a set of her paper dolls as well as a few other items.  I like the vintage photos best so that is why I'm trying to find out where this particular photo was really taken.
