I can see that Gloria Stuart is not going to win this, but I will at least try to get her some votes.

She played Rose in “Titanic” and died at aged 100! (Which is good news for me, because we share birthdays and I’m taking that as an omen that I’ll live to a good age).

She was also in “The Invisible Man” and “The Old Dark House” in 1932-33, so she’s part of the classic horror ladies!

And here she is with James Cagney, for you, OP 😉

Propaganda

Gloria Stuart (The Old Dark House, The Invisible Man)—no propaganda submitted

Elizabeth Welch (Song of Freedom, Big Fella, Dead of Night)— Starry-eyed, honey-voiced, magnetic. A Broadway star in the 1920s, she SHOULD have become a torch-singing Hollywood star when talking pictures came in. Instead she was faced with Hollywood racism, so she moved to Europe and juggled British movie roles and a top-class cabaret career. (Heard the classic songs "Stormy Weather" or "Love For Sale" or "As Time Goes By"? She introduced them all.) You need to hear her croon, so here she is co-starring with certified hot vintage man Paul Robeson:

This is round 1 of the tournament. All other polls in this bracket can be found here. Please reblog with further support of your beloved hot sexy vintage woman.
