Olive Thomas – Beatrice Fairfax (1916)
“Miss Thomas, an Olive for whom it is no effort to cultivate a taste, isn’t going to desert the creeping pastels, after all. She has signed a contract with the newly formed Selznick Picture corporation (Myron Selznick, son of THE Selznick) at a cheerful salary. She wants to act in adaptations from well-known plays, else, she says, she might as well have stayed with Ziegfeld’s Follies.” — Photoplay, March 1919
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.
