That's it. Next time I go to town, I'm wearing a bow on my butt, no matter what I'm wearing. I love those!

Not sure if this is a movie, a picturebook or a vaudeville act, but Id sure like to see it.View attachment 470886

I love it!

It is an Australian dish, one I love because it is so messy. I just checked and the oldest recipe written down seems to be by a lady called Emily Futter, in the early 1900s. So, not Escoffier. Honey, don't dis the French!

Ooooohhhh, you had me at "messy."

All the Supremes looked so much better than Diana Ross.

Ross was "the Cute One", though I never thought so. Ballard was more my idea of a cutie, and she had a boomer of voice...But Berry Gordy had his ideas, and the man made a ton of money with those ideas. That "Hitsville" documentary is an eye-opener in some things, while it buries others. I was more of a Martha Reeves and the Vandellas fan, then, especially of a tune called "Honey Chile"

Navy F6F Hellcats and Marine F4U Corsairs ready for transshipment to the Pacific. Note the folded Wings which allowed for tightly packed holds and Jeep Carrier maxed loads

Sidewheel Steamships at the Gay Street Docks, Baltimore, around

The Clown Car has a busted Fratterhorn.

No idea what came in the Can, but I think I know who came in the Lady...

 

[saddlebum66]

Lulu, reading up on the nicer things....Looks like Clara Bow might better Duck.

 

[saddlebum66]

Bettie says shes glad Lulu isnt after Her...

 

[saddlebum66]

Raquel Torres, about 1934

 

[saddlebum66]

Rochelle Hudson around the same time

 

[saddlebum66]

Della Reese, about 1950....she put the "yum" in 'Da-yum'.

 

[saddlebum66]

Normally, I dont bother with Male Stars, but this is Robert
Taylor, in character as 'Billy the Kid'...Taylor was so damn pretty in the day, and the outfit was....well...I have an outfit like that one. The Horse may be Highland Dale, who was better known as Television's Fury.

This is Vincent Price, around 1977, visiting the Grave of Edgar Allen Poe, in Baltimore. Price made many of Poe's stories into some fun movies.

A Bonbonniere, By the Master, Rene Lalique, probably 1910

Marjorie Reynolds, who played opposite Bing Crosby in "Holiday Inn" which gave us "White Christmas" and spawned a motel chain

 

[saddlebum66]

French Actress Michelle Morgan. A Star for three Decades, and one of the finest actresses ever produced by France. She played the noble Lover of the peasant Colonel played by Anthony Quinn in "The Lost Command". About France's late Colonial failures, especially Dien Bien Phu, it is a
great film by any standard. Useful, too, in aiding understanding of US involvement in Viet Nam, Laos, and Cambodia

Unknown, but a honeydripper.
