VP19,
No, it isn't Marion Davies.
-
No, Not Clara Bow. Wrong studio. Not the right hair or eye color either. Again, it's an MGM actress who was well known for her glamorous and radiant beauty.

Here are three more of the Swanson Christmas photos I worked with from last year, or maybe some of them two years ago. This last one was originally posted on GAOH December 22nd of 2009. So it has been longer for some of these than I had remembered.

*"Swanson-"Toy's A Plenty"*

*"Gloria Bearing Gifts"*

*"Now That's A Christmas Tree!"*
-
Still another Lost Mary Astor movie:

-
Have to check the year on this one....

-
Wendy,
Here is a tamer shot of the Peek-A Boo Mary Nolan shoot I talked about a week or two ago.

*Mary Nolan-"I Would See Through That Alright"*

Wendy,
Here was a list of everyone included in the second ad I think? Not in any order.
*Patsy Ruth Miller*
*Esther Ralston*
*Nita Naldi*
*Claire Windsor*
*Bebe Daniels*
*Marion Davies*
*Leatrice Joy*
*May Allison*
*Mae Murray*
*Corinne Griffith*
*Blanche Sweet*
Hey, A whole bunch of Mulsified at this link. Some Wonderful Ads!

ugaarate,
Here is another ad for Mulsified. I believe it is from 1926? Don't remember for sure. Could still be '25? I know I posted this before, but it could have been as much as two or three years ago. So you may have forgotten about it, or not seen it at all. I recall that we were trying to figure out just who was all pictured in the ad. Maybe it was part of the old Hollywood Revue of 1929 thread from "General Discussions?"

*"So Then Girls, Let's Get Mulsified!"*

Ed,
Yes, I 'd love to see STAGE STRUCK (1925) on TCM. It would be nice if Paramount would consider releasing the title for it's 100th Anniversary. Especially, since it is in Technicolor. Paired with a few other rare Silents. Especially, CHILDREN OF DIVORCE.
-
Interesting photo of Pola Negri and...say, what is that thing anyway? I guess it's some sort of Skinny Cat? Not to sure what kind of Cat?

*Pola with Her Animal Friend*
-
Wow! All These grand ladies endorsed Mulsfied Coconut Shampoo. Colleen Moore Marion Davies, Corinne Griffith, Claire Windsor, Patsy Ruth Miller, Carmel Meyers, Betty Blythe, Betty Compson and Mae Murray in this colorful 1925 Ad.

-
Wendy,
Really? I know I posted it in some thread a year ago.
Here is another of the Swanson Christmas photos.

*"Gloria To The Season"*
-
Wendy,
No, not Anita Page either. Good guess though.
-
Wendy,
OK, here is another of the Swanson Christmas pics I worked on last year.

*"Decorating Diva"*
-
Wendy,
Nope not Esther Ralston. Wrong studio. An MGM Star. The year of the photo was taken is 1926. Unfortunately, someone we haven't seen much of on TCM.
-

*Harold Lloyd and Jobyna Ralston-"Sunday Milk Shake Break"*
-
Wendy,
No, it's not Colleen Moore. A blue eyed blonde. Just posted a photo of her a few pages ago.
-

*Lars Hanson and Greta Garbo-THE DIVINE WOMAN (1928)*
-

*Marion Davies-"Angel Light"*
-
Can anyone guess who this is?

-

*Marie Prevost- "Girl And Globe"*
-
musicalnovelty,
Just a typo. Really it exists? I know there is a Tiffiney that exists from 1926 with Marceline Day in 28 Millimeter, but I have forgotten the name of it. 5th Avenue Fashion Models or something like that?

*Marie Prevost-MANBAIT-Lobby-card*

mark,
Decent article, but the THE JAZZ SINGER did not kill off Silent films. Far from it. In-fact it had only marginal impact. The film that did send up heavy warning signs was Jolson's follow-up THE SINGING FOOL in late Summer of 1928. Converting to sound took several years. In smaller towns many people never saw a talkie until as late as 1931,. In some foreign nations it took even longer. Check out this interview with Kevin Brownlow of restorations. Hope this is the right link. It is really fascinating stuff.

Very Colorful Lobby-card for a film I'd never heard of.

*Lila Lee-The Little Wild Girl (1928)*

Another Kicker!

Wendy,
No, I don't think she made to many talkies.
Hope some people saw THE BLUE BIRD (1918) this morning. I thought it was spectacular. One of the finest films ever made for children. or just the young at heart.I thought it should rank with the '39 WIZARD OF OZ and should be considered essential viewing. I'm saddened that this could not have aired at a better hour. It is on DVD from Kino, and the Mont Alto Motion Picture Orchestra score is maybe the best they have ever done. Buy it for Christmas! You won't be disappointed.
