Didn’t know there was a fourth set, did you? All right, maybe you did, but after buying up boxes and boxes of the sets numbered 1-3, as well as the rounded border and borderless variations, I was pretty darned surprised when Larry Houghtalin contacted me last Fall inquiring about Box #4. Once Larry showed me some scans I tried to buy them, but while he wasn’t selling Larry was kind enough to scan the entire set of cards for me to share with you here on things-and-other-stuff.com! (Actually, Larry scanned all 4 box sets, which could lead to some other new pages in the future).
The brand new, complete Photo ID Guide is here on the main site. All 50 cards are pictured. But just to whet your appetite here’s a single example, Gloria Swanson, followed by a text checklist of all 50 names included in Box No. 4.
