That must have been dreadfully difficult for her. I'm so happy for emancipation!

 

[saddlebum66]

Don't know...I know mt Great Granny and Great Granddad used to do that there, but probably earlier, since she was born in 1869. When I think of the changes during her 96 years, from the Transcontinental Rail to the Sputnik that went up not long before she passed, it boggles my mind

 

[saddlebum66]

Slightly exotic look....and swarthy if not black. Definitely a babe

Denise Darcel about 1950. Theres a scene in the movie, "Battleground" in which she is cutting a loaf of bread hugging it with her elbow against her chest, while slicing almost horizontally....it always used to make my Dad Cringe.....and now makes me smile.

I had one of these Chick-u-bators in the day....Never got ONE chick from it....not ONE! Shucks....

I think maybe it was too small....

 

[saddlebum66]

This End is another who'll be stiff in the AM....I know the feeling....anyway you twist it?

 

[saddlebum66]

This End may be undercover, but her hidden assets are definitely in the plus column.

 

[saddlebum66]

And with those lines between the Shoes and the Hair, this End has a lot to recommend her.
