“Saludos afectuosos al pueblo español, mi pueblo, que pronto tendré el inmenso placer de visitar. Estoy tan contenta de trabajar en España! María Montez”

“Affectionate greetings to the Spanish people, my people, who I will soon have the immense pleasure of visiting. I am so happy to work in Spain! María Montez”

This is a postcard announcing that María would come to Spain to film “La Maja de Goya”, a film produced by Cesáreo González. He contacted her with the contract and the script and she agreed to take part on the film. The film was about to start by September 1951 but since 1949 the Spanish producer wanted to work with the Dominican Star.

Cesareo González was the one who promoted Mexican actress and singer María Félix and launched her career in European films. She first worked with him in "La Corona Negra" in 1951. This was a Spanish film co-produced by France and Italy.

This photo was first printed in Spanish magazine Primer Plano number 560 from July 1951.

Antonio Pérez Arnay had the magazine and was interested in getting the photo for his book "María Montez La Reina del Tecnicolor", and finally, he had a copy from the original one (believed to be in the Spanish Filmotheque) and could publish it in his great and unique book for María Montez.

Very special thanks to @74paris for the information given and the pics provided here.
