Above is a publicity photo--surely intended to be humorous-- showing Jack putting the final touches on Conrad Veidt's wig on the set of The Man Who Laughs (Universal, 1928). At some point in his career Pierce became a professional barber. Notice his portable makeup kit in the background.
The identity of the photographer is unknown, but it is most likely Roman or Jack Freulich or Ray Jones, all who worked for Universal at the time.
