We have three newcomers to our site today:

• Monte Blue - last year I visited a small movie memorabilia shop in Nevada.  While panning for gold in a neglected back room, I came across this splendid original photo.  Someone had written "Doris Swan" long ago on the reverse side—however, it's a still from The Dark Swan (1924), with Lilyan Tashman, John Patrick, and Helene Chadwick.  Thanks to Maria and Carrie for help in identifying the film.

• Zachary Scott - a 1940's leading man, usually playing a debonair cad

• Grady Sutton - throughout the 1930's and 40's he and Franklin Pangborn meekly blazed the Casper Milquetoast trail for Wally Cox, Arnold Stang, and Don Knotts.  Here he is in My Dear Secretary (1949), with Florence Bates (thanks to Carrie for identifying the film)

• Tala Birell
