Description

Emma Sams "Fallon Colby" portrait painting from The Colbys. (ABC, 1985-1987) Vintage original portrait accomplished in oils on 32 x 26 x 2 in. canvas featuring Emma Samms as "Fallon Colby" wearing a red sequined gown and a ruby necklace. Presented in its original ornate gold frame that hung at the Colby Mansion on the legendary TV series. Viewers see her portrait (in the likeness of actress Pamela Sue Martin) for the first time as it is unwrapped by Krystle & Blake Carrington in the "Royal Wedding" season 1 episode. However, the role of Fallon Colby would be recast to Emma Samms in 1985, and fans have long speculated that the face on the original portrait was painted over (instead of a new painting being commissioned to reflect the new casting). Exhibiting minor age and production wear. In very good to fine condition
