The blond is Betty Boyd??

@StukInTexAss The file name on my computer identifies her as Betty Boyd, but I'm not an expert in identifying her. I have three other poses of her and I don't think she is blond. It's just the lighting that makes it seem so.

Who were the women in this video? I recognized Barbara Stanwyck a few times. But she was the only one I knew. One other may have been Lillian Gish but I am not sure.

SMASHING! *****

Love those BANJOLICIOUS Banjos. :-)

Thanks Genia. The banjoist is none other than Gus Lazaro. He thanks you too!

@novusmundi Pretty stunning! It's hard to grasp just how beautiful the women of the 20s really were! In the old films, they put too much makeup on them, and overdone lipstick, it was hard to really see, they all looked the same. But these photos do them a bit more justice! :)

Lou and the boys are pretty much playing the stock arrangement on this record.

The blond after the four is Betty Boyd??

@bsgs98 Thx a lot. I am a huge fan of this era and also the 30's and 40's.
