IMO the best looking pre-code actress was Toby Wing.

The finest pre-code actress was Betty Davis...boy could she act!

Nearly all pre-code actresses were forced to compete with Jean Harlow and had bleached platinum hair.

Warren William who unexpectedly falls in love with her in the 1933 goldiggers movie.
