(This article was originally published in the May 1932 edition of Movie Classic magazine as
Marlene Dietrich will have only one great love, her handwriting shows)
Who knows what Marlene is really like? Louise Rice, who is
world famous for her studies of character from handwriting —and tells you here what
she finds in Marlene s signature. The German star, herself, could hardly tell
you more!
MARLENE DIETRICH’s signature — reproduced herewith — gives the graphologist an enormous surprise. For
what have all the publicity men featured in their blurbs about the German
sensation? You all know as well as I do — LEGS, and not much of anything else.
But ask her director and her business manager, and I am sure that they will tell
you that they have found her to have a head for business and a good
understanding as well.
No, I didn't mean that last characteristic as a joke, although
you may think that I was guilty of a pun, which is a serious crime in this
country. I mean that she has the ability to think quickly and to the point on
any subject that seems to her worthwhile. Also, that she has a sudden feeling
or intuition that is often of great assistance to her in outguessing the “other
fellow,” when trying to carry out her
plans. See if your handwriting shows the little breaks in the connecting
strokes of the small letters that Marlene has in her words. If so, you also have
intuition and should use it to the best
advantage.
