Period PBs

(WIP. All contributions welcome!)

This is a directory of actors used in period films with links to images of their performances in particular films. Please use in conjunction with the Face Claim[1] when selecting a PB for your character. A strikethrough denotes a PB in use as a current character. Some actors have been working a long time and therefore may appear both in the 'Younger' and 'Older' categories (Sylvestra Le Touzel and Nicholas Farrell, for example) and these names are marked with a star.

Please note that an attempt has been made to make all pics uploaded a large 800px wide by 450px high, although this has not been possible in all cases - for example, where shots have been found via Google search. These small shots will hopefully be replaced with larger pics in the future.
