Mystery actor

[Click for a larger view.]

Here’s a hint: look closely at both views. I think this actor’s identity is gettable if you consider both.

Leave your guesses in the comments. I’ll drop a hint when I can if one is needed.

Lunchtime. Here’s a clue: You may have seen her carrying an animal in a basket. But she’s not Judy Garland.

The answer is now in the comments.

It’s someone else.

My wife's guess is Billie Burke, better known as Glinda, the Good Witch.

Michael Leddy said...

Not her.

ChasM said...

We both think she looks like Lucille Ball though.

Michael Leddy said...

Not her. I think LB looks a lot like Constance Bennett. Sounds like her too. I’m adding a clue.

Ida Lupino?

Virginia Grey is our last offer.

Ida Lupino

Yes, that’s Ida Lupino, playing Hope Harcourt, English heiress, in Anything Goes (dir. Lewis Milestone, 1936). The clue references Lupino’s role as Marie in High Sierra.

ida lupino had not crossed my mind simply because her looks later in life to me were so much harsher. i remember her from lots of the 70s police shows.
