Mary Pickford in Secrets 6.5x8.75 photo. Hand-signed in ink. Part of NZ Photo Album.
While this may not be the most amazing or ground-breaking Mary Pickford collection out there in the world, I've decided to share what I have for all to enjoy. Non-watermarked, high-resolution scans are available upon request (and at my discretion) by emailing filmiracle [at] yahoo [dot] com. If you notice any errors or can fill in any missing information, don't hesitate to get in touch. This website is a work in progress.

The Informer (1912) - Lobby Card - Aywon Re-Release (1921)
Nathan Hirsh’s Aywon Film Corporation obtained the rights to re-release a number of Pickford short subjects directed by D.W. Griffith in late-1920 / early-1921. One of which was the Biograph The Informer. This one, featuring Mary and Jack (peaking in at the top left,) is of the many lobby card designs produced for the film. Gifted from the Pamela Short Collection.
Scrapbook - late 1920s - early 1930s
The source of this dismantled scrapbook is unknown. It seems to have been compiled during the late 1920s - early 1930s (with some very clearly modern updates.) Comprised mainly of unmodified newspaper and magazine clippings (with photographs by Hartsook, Evans, Hesser, Newberg, Lindstedt-Phelan, Strauss Peyton, Nickolas Murray, G.L. Manuel Freres, Ira L. Hill, Preston Duncan, K. O. Rahmn, and beyond,) there are also number of nice hand-colored clippings and handwritten notes by the maker. Also worth mentioning is the May, 1926 Screenland cover, with a metallic gold background, featuring a painting by Jay Weaver. A nice assortment even if just miscellaneous clipped photos. It would be nice to comment on each page, but that would be quite a chore. Donated to MPF.
