I'm sure that I've mentioned this before but some of my early DS pictures came from MGM. They had a branch of the still department in New York and, though it wasn't common knowledge, you could purchase stills from them. You just needed to give them the name of the actor (if you wanted a headshot) or a brief description of a scene and they would come up with something. The stills cost $1.25 apiece, which was rather high by 1970's prices. But the stills were very good quality and they are still part of my collection. Unfortunately, MGM shut down its New York offices around 1972. I never tried ordering anything from their office in California.
