Frances Rafferty, A minor Movie Star who was a "Yank" magazine Volunteer pinup Girl through WWll, later becoming a TV Star in the cast of "December Bride" with Harry Morgan, Cara Williams and Spring Byington. I see why she was a popular GI dreamboat.

Why, Lulu, So glad to see you here....

Gerda Wegener worked in Nouveau and Deco styles. She is considered to be a lesbian eroticist, but the tags, as usual, serve to compartmentalize more than define.I found this titled "Three Thanks ln The Moonlight" but I believe the translation is punk, and that the piece is really titled "Three Graces In The Moonlight". This is why TAGS are never a good thing. The piece is beautiful of itself. Nothing else matters.

A Lalique piece from the Paris Salon of 1900. This Is a diadem, meant to be worn in the Hair. Gold, Amethyst, and what looks to be Abalone Shell.

By gadfrey!, I lost track of a piece I promised a very special Person, one who appreciates fine things. Another bit of the natural world as interpreted by Rene Lalique.
An Ornamental Hair Comb, of Horn, which is quite moldable when heated, and a diamond-awned stalk of grain....This is what its all about, children. Now and forever, Beauty needs no excuse. It simply IS.

 

[Erja]

That's not what I do with MY little rubber ducks in the bathtub, but it sure does look nice.

I bet your ducky runs on batteries, so thats not fair hahaha

 

[Erja]

Not quite the one....she's carryin' Cerveza....I'm holdin' out for the chicquita with the GlenFiddich in each hand.

Ok, you keep lookin, i will keep her

 

[Erja]

For Miz Kristy, especially.
Another Lalique Brooch, "Phyrne"...depicting a Courtesan of Ancient Athens....According to legend, she ran foul of the City Laws, and was brought to trial. Her case was lost until her lawyer or representative pulled her top down. When the beauty of her breasts was exposed to the jury, she was acquitted of all wrongdoing. Phyrne became a celebrated subject of song and play.View attachment 425448

That sure proves that the blindfold of justice doenst work

Can you pass me a towl, im drooling

 

[saddlebum66]

It wasn't Justice's Blindfold that got lifted....

Phyrne apparently was not a pretty woman....The name is the genus of Toads. I suspect the story is a sort of allegory for not judging a manuscript by its Umbillicus and Cornua.
Given the timbre of the times, "Nudge, nudge( wink, wink...), say no more..." seems appropos.

Kristy, you are bad for my heart, you know that, dont you ?

 

[Erja]

Probably full of Springbok.

Are you suggesting she is drunk ?

 

[saddlebum66]

Are you suggesting she is drunk ?

Seems She's sleeping SOMETHING off....I recognize the look.

And Miz K ? isn't bad for your heart, compadre.....< grinnn> She's keeping the pump synchronous.

Miss Rachel, I m afraid Kristy will see that as overdressed.

 

[saddlebum66]

I cant say for sure, but Id say yes....
