That is so cool,
MFM! Thank you for sharing that tidbit!

If anyone wants to put more effort into confirming the less obvious ones, more power to you :-)

Could we possibly ask
MFM to ask Mr. Ericson for some assistance?

Does anyone think these two might be Marge & Gower Champion?
They did films for M-G-M from the late 1940's to late 1950's.
Recently (might've been last Monday) on the BUZZR TV channel,
I came across an episode of WHAT'S MY LINE that had, as the
celebrity guests, Marge & Gower champion.
I thought #14 & #15 might be them for a bit, but I did see a photo
from The Glass Slipper of Leslie Caron in that outfit, so that must
be her.

According to this link,
THE COMPLETE M-G-M MUSICALS CHRONOLOGY LIST
M-G-M made 60 musicals from 1950-1959. There is a poster for each one of them
on the site. I don't claim it's entirely accurate because, for one, I noticed there wasn't
a single Elvis film on the list and he did at least two for M-G-M.
