1927 photo of Gertrude Olmsted at
home sitting in her chair with built-in radio. The caption reads,
"Gertrude Olmsted is listening in on her radio. Miss Olmsted
has the feminine lead in Jackie Coogan's latest starring vehicle,
'Buttons,' for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. A notable cast including Lars
Hanson, Roy D'Arcy, Polly Moran and others appear in support of
the star. George Hill directed the film from an original wirtten
by himself especially for the screen."
