A young and preternaturally wacky Joan Davis?

Saw "Hollywood Hotel" recently. Is it Mabel Todd?

Is she the wonderful comedienne Mabel (no, not Thelma, Mabel) Todd?

Woo-hoo! I love Mabel Todd. Short career, but she was very funny--a lot (in looks and delivery) like Penny Marshall in her Odd Couple/Laverne & Shirley days.

Frances Williams? And what's up with Facebook? When I try to post the mystery person, all I get are ads for cars, so I'm not doing it,

Hey! photo #3 is of Dorothy MacKaill. What's up?

Gloria Dickson on Saturday? But photos 2 and 3, can't be her, but Dorothy Mackaill. Today's photo is definitely Mackaill, we have a photo of her wearing the same clothes but facing a different direction, and it says Dorothy Mackaill in court, 1929.

Did the mystery lady age about 15 years at the photo shoot? Same type of clothes (hat though is different and may not be the same fur coat), but what a facial difference. Is this her mom or a really bad hangover?

Mabel Todd, who irritated the heck outta me in "Hollywood Hotel." I will NEVER forget that face.

Mabel's more famous sister Thelma? Thelma Todd.
