Okay, I'll be the one to christen this new section.

I picked this still up over the weekend and believe it's from the 1930 Richard Talmadge late silent feature THE POOR MILLIONAIRE. I'm not at all familiar with the actress Constance Howard, but the one image I've found online looks like it might be her. Can any of you confirm that this is indeed Ms. Howard and/or that I've correctly identified the film? Thanks in advance.

That girl is definitely NOT Constance Howard, she's way much cuter than Constance Howard.

Is this Constance Howard (image grabbed from the internet)? If it is, she looks pretty good to my aging eyes.

There's a resemblance, don't you think?

That pic is Constance Howard, but no, there is not much resemblance. Girl in Talmadge photo had wider set eyes, broader face, different nose,better defined chin, and Constance Howard was a stick figure compared to this girl.

I have a couple of other pics of Constance Howard, where she's a blonde, but I have nowhere to post them so I can put them up here, doy you have my email address? I'll send it to you privately and if you email me, I'll send them to you.

Got the pics, Richard, and I see what you mean. Thanks! Mind if I post them here for all to see?
