Who played Blofeld in "From Russia with Love"?

We see Blofeld stroking his white cat, but never see his face. The credits don’t identify the actor.

iMDB Trivia section on the movie says Anthony Dawson.

Cameo: [Anthony Dawson] In the first appearance of the Ernst Stavro Blofeld villain character in a James Bond movie. His part is uncredited in the credits, which are attributed to a question mark. Dawson had previously appeared in Dr. No (1962) as Professor Dent and again would return as Blofeld in Thunderball (1965). He is the only actor to have ever played Blofeld more than once. The voice of Blofeld in this film was dubbed by an uncredited Eric Pohlmann.

Thanks, pravnik! I checked IMDB but didn’t delve down into the trivia section.

I wished they’d used him (with that voice) for Bloefeld in the later movies. Donald Pleasance was interesting, but the continuity gap seemed awkward.
