What a collection of photos. I wonder who the twin ladies are.

I wonder too. They don't seem to be any of the most famous sisters or
twins I know of in films of that era like Norma and Constance Talmadge,
etc. But my facial recognition abilities are so poor that I might miss an obvious identification.

I have been going through and trying to identify people in the pictures
when possible, but any identifications would be welcome! Just last night I was able to identify several, and find other copies of some of these photos on the Web. But there are many people there that can't be identified.

One sad thing is that many of these actors pictured have very few or no surviving films left to watch. The majority of films from that era have not survived, I think.

I am glad people enjoyed the scrapbook! It really does have some nice images of circa-1916 fashion.

That might be Anna Pavlova.

I think it may be -- there is another clipping loose in the book of a dancer in the same costume, labeled as Pavlova.
