A lot of people missed #10 which was Barbara Pepper who played Doris Ziffel on Green Acres. I got that question right only because I saw the Perry Mason episode "The Vagabond Vixen" recently and she played the mother of the vixen. She is a lot fatter and older in that episode but still recognizable when looking at that photo.
"You got 9 out of 11. You've got a keen eye!' I missed # 6 and #7. Both of those were really hard to get in my opinion.
8/11 because my grandfather taught me a trick when I was a kid that really works: remember a person by their eyes and no matter how much their face changes, you will still pretty much remember them. The 3 I didn't get I wasn't really familiar with them. Once I attended a costume contest at a mall for Halloween. Several weeks later I encountered one of the other contestants and complimented him on his costume. It freaked him out because the only part of him you could see was his eyes. I once recognized someone I knew in jr high when we were in our 30s and he had gotten really obese. He didn't remember me and was amazed I remembered him. I told him you may have changed but your eyes didn't.
Got 8.that was a tough one . Ir I hadn't watched so manyee in life
old movies with my mom who. had me late in life I wouldn't have done that well

I missed Will Geer & Hitchcock
I missed 9 and 10
9 out of 11
10/11...I missed #6. In this image, he could have passed for Reiner, though Reiner was younger during the time of this old photo, but I chose of course, Frawley. Just didn't resemble Hitchcock even with the hair.
8/11, most were pretty easy. Missed Alfred Hitchcock, Barbara Pepper and Jonathan Harris…even though I could totally see Dr. Smith in that face. Milburn Stone kinda resembles a young John Wayne in that photo.
9/11. missed 6 +11
WooHoo - only missed ONE - the last one
Several minutes of staring at pics and some guessing

I got 9 out of 11. I missed #7 and #11.
8/11 these weren't so easy
10/11 Guessed on a few and blew the last one. I would have bet money that Alfred Hitchcock picture was actually Curly Howard!
I thought so too but only Shemp played villains.
Shemp was the only stooge I remember in other roles
9 out of 11. Missed #s 6 & 11.
8/11
man oh man -two curve balls for sure
#6 sure the hell looks like carl reiner
#11 sure looks like Dr Smith
man oh man -two curve balls for sure
#6 sure the hell looks like carl reiner
#11 sure looks like Dr Smith
Had no clue on #10 (never heard of her), and I agree with you on #11.
7 of 11
7 out of 11. STILL think Alfie looks exactly like Fred Mertz in his younger years!
3/11 Ouch.
