    Is this from a Vitaphone short? The Stroh Violin was used in 1920s dance bands. I’ve occasionally seen 1920s bands here in LA use it.

    This isn’t still from SPIES, is it? I assumed it was something different, since you listed it as mystery photo, and had the link to a previous game.

    In the third picture, the guy in the middle is George E. (a/k/a Georgie) Stone. Which would make this any one of about 10 features he was in between 1928 and 1930.

    It’s Phyllis Haver I believe, with George E. Stone on the left, probably from Chicago.

    Thin fellow with pencil-thin mustache is George E. Stone. Could the lady be Texas Guinon?

    I should have been here sooner: This is The Racket (1928), one of my favorite films.

    No idea who the band in the first pic is, but that’s the back of Thomas Meighan. Second is Marie Prevost. Third is Marie, George E. Stone and one of the henchmen, but I don’t know the actor. Maybe Jack Perry? Fourth is Louis Wolheim, Marie, George. Fifth is Wolheim and I think Sam De Grasse. Last is Wolheim and Marie.

    You need a pic with Skeets Gallagher in it for tomorrow!

    I guess this is The Racket with George and Louis and Marie Prevost, 1928. Never saw it but it seems to be the only film Louis and George did together.
