Thelma Todd Fashion Photo
Thelma Todd in a fashion photo from when she was working for First National around the time that sound came in. Someone wrote "Alison Loyd" on the back of the photo ( evidently unsure of the spelling ) and later crossed it out again as Thelma Todd was no longer using that name, which was associated with the movie CORSAIR.

VAMPING VENUS Photo
VAMPING VENUS was a fantasy where the principles started out in the modern era and then found themselves in ancient Greece in a dream sequence. This publicity picture shows Thelma Todd with a measuring tape around her neck because it is part of a publicity campaign which compared her measurements to those of an ancient Greek statue of Venus.
Again we see where a preexisting picture of Thelma Todd had her name crossed off the back and replaced with "Alison Lloyd" because she used that name in CORSAIR, only to have that name crossed out in turn to be replaced by the original.

Pictures From PICTURE SHOW
Pictures from a British fan magazine from the thirties.
You see the last name of "Alison Lloyd" spelled with one letter "L" or two, despite the story that the name was selected because of it's numerological significance.
