Margaret Dumont circa early 1900s, not quite yet the dowdy dowager of Marx Brothers fame.

Maybe I just missed the mention, but it's legitimately insane that Paulette Goddard wouldn't have shown up here yet.

Caroll Borland was pretty much only in Tod Browning's Mark of the Vampire but every photo/still of her is amazing.

Lilian Bond was a freakin' knockout (she and Gloria Stewart were very crushworthy in The Old Dark House).

Maude Adams wasn't strictly a '20s/'30s actress (she was the first actress to play Peter Pan on Broadway in the '00s; she retired in the '10s to work for General Electric, teach drama, and generally have her shit together, but she briefly returned to stage acting in the early '30s), but this is too great a portrait not to share:

man, I spent like a week trying to remember who this was before I realized I'd posted about her. she's still probably the most beautiful person of the past ≈ 200 years
