Well, that first photo on the last post was Mabel Todd, at any rate, so there was SOME Mabel Todd content, just not 100%!
I have no guess on the current guest, but boy does she have some nice legs.

The man with Dorothy is Sidney Blackmer. The film STRICTLY MODERN.

The man in the latest two-shot looks like he could be one of the Roaches. Hal Junior?

The last two photos looks like Sidney Blackmer and Donald Cook. The name of the actress is right on the tip of my tongue!

I've seen her a million times and I STILL have trouble recognizing her. She looks terrific in the picture with Sidney Blackmer, apparently from "Strictly Modern" per Mike.
