A very young Zasu Pitts? Around the time she was in GREED?

@rinkydinkydoink I grew up watching her on THE GALE STORM SHOW. What gets me is the question of how to pronounce her name -- in her many appears on radio she is always called "ZAY-sue", but Wiki claims it should be "Say-Zoo". :(

@ChipmunkErnie

I'm more confused than ever, now...

@rinkydinkydoink I think the Wikipedia source is actually a typo from a book.

@ChipmunkErnie She was very creepy in Greed, after she became greedy. Having only seen her in comedies until then her performance took me by surprise.

@robingoodfellow I've only ever seen clips from GREED, never sat through the whole thing. And the version that exists is hours short of the full original.
