This is only one of two known photographs of Belle Greene in the 1930s (the other is in the private collection of Robert Leitner, Seattle, WA. Leitner is Belle Greene's grand-nephew). Greene annotated the photograph on the clipping with "Ha Ha." The article itself notes how elusive Belle Greene has been with reporters: "Miss Greene shrinks from personal publicity, and while she doubtless has as wide a reputation among the scholars of the world as any American woman, she is almost an unknown personality outside this esoteric group. She doesn't want to talk about herself for publication, tho she is willing and eager to display the gems in her care."
