Framed

Pushing the boundries of its name once again, Golden Age Comic Book Stories posted images of several dozen Art Deco era picture frames, each surrounding the photo of a contemporary film star, including this tinted image of the lovely Myrna Loy.  Shots of Cary Grant, Anna Mae Wong, Jean Harlow, Carol Lombarde and Hedy Lamarr also appear.
