Don’t forget Vintage Sunday
“This is an interesting place”
This Sunday, instead of the usual mix of vintage images I have decided to post only images related to Mary Miles Minter
Mary Miles Minter (born Juliet Reilly; 25th April 1902 – 4th August1984) was an American actress. She appeared in 53 silent films from 1912 to 1923.
In 1922, Minter was involved in a scandal surrounding the murder of director William Desmond Taylor, for whom she professed her love. Although gossip implicated her mother, former actress Charlotte Shelby, as the murderer, Minter’s reputation was tarnished, and she gave up her movie career in 1923.
About
My wife, bless her tells me that I am rapidly becoming, or perhaps that should read have become a “Grumpy old fart”, so what better forum to spread my doom, gloom and paranoia than WordPress. I also have a love of old pictures, postcards and Edwardian Actresses, in particular Miss Gabrielle Ray which I hope to share at regular intervals. As my collection has grown I have set up another blog which contains only pictures of Miss Ray. Gabrielle Ray Thank you for viewing and comments are welcome.
