Dolores Costello (also known as Dolores Costello Barrymore) was an actress from the 1900s to the 1940s. Some of her movies include: The Magnificent Ambersons, Old San Francisco, Little Lord Fauntleroy, and the Show of Shows. She was the daughter of Maurice Costello, an early film star, and she co-starred with and was married to actor John Barrymore (who said when he first saw her, "I have just seen the most beautiful woman in the world. I shall not rest or eat until I see her again."). Her son was John Barrymore, Jr. (John Drew Barrymore) and her granddaughter is Drew Barrymore. AND Helene Costello was born in 1906 and was a child star from 1909 to 1916, at which point she "retired", and then in 1926, she was selected as one of the "Wampas Baby Stars" (even though she had already had a major career!), and then she continued acting until 1936, and then she retired again, this time permanently! She is best known for her work in Lights of New York and In Old Kentucky as adult roles, and for her approximately 70 roles as a child actress AND Alice Calhoun was an actress from the 1910s to the 1930s. She is best known for her work in The Flag: A Story Inspired by the Tradition of Betsy Ross, Now I'll Tell, and Princess Jones AND Dorothy Devore was an actress from the 1910s to the 1930s. She made 94 movies, and was a Wampas Baby Star in 1923.
Important Added Info: Note that this still measures 8" x 10 1/4" [20 x 26 cm].

Note that this still has a stamp on the back in the form of a diamond that has "TRR" running down the center. One certainly might wonder who placed this stamp there and why. The answer is that the still (and many others we are auctioning in this set of auctions) come to us from a still collector who has collected for many decades, and long ago he began stamping the back of his stills with this stamp, and "TRR" is his initials! Each of the stills is stamped lightly, and the stamp does NOT affect the front of the still. He is a VERY advanced collector, and he has consigned many wonderful stills to us!

Condition: good to very good. There are some tiny dot stains scattered in the upper left of the image background, but the still is otherwise in pretty nice condition!
