One good still deserves another: here’s Nancy Carroll again, cozying up to a pumpkin-headed friend. A major star of early talkies, Carroll apparently sabotaged her own career by becoming a prima donna at Paramount; before long they had her working out her contract in routine vehicles. But you’d never know any of that from perky photos like this.

That Bow picture--with the light from the jack-o-lantern reflecting on her face--is stunning. They really knew how to shoot photographs back then.
