Back in August 2006, I posted an unidentified actress and challenged you to figure out whose alluring image was being featured. Clues were provided. Well, its that time again.
Our second mystery guest was in 44 films beginning in 1924, coincidentally the same year as our first mystery guest. She was also a Mack Sennet bathing beauty at age 15 and was a WAMPAS Baby Star (search this blog for more WAMPAS stars)in 1925. She had the lead in many of her pictures, but after a salary dispute, her star faded and tragically, in 1947, at the age of 40, she died at the Sunshine Mission - a home for destitute women on Los Angeles' Skid Row.

Olive Borden right?
Absolutely beautiful picture...
Bingo - and for getting it so quickly I'm posting the second card I have of her, with the name attached. Guess I have be even more obscure to challenge my savvy visitors :-)
To be fair, I cheated a bit. Maybe you should make a 'no google' rule so someone like me doesn't stroll along and spoil the real guessing! Still though, if you reward us with more pics 'sall good anyway...
Keep em coming!
