Vintage photo card, ed. unknown. Probably 1930s.

 

Joyce Compton (1907-1997) was an American actress. At First National, she landed several leading female roles. In 1926, she was chosen as a potential star among the WAMPAS Baby Stars. With the advent of the talkies in the late 1920s, Compton specialised in supporting roles as dumb blondes with squeaky voices, often paired with her distinctive Southern accent. She maintained this role until the end of her career.
