That story of Myrna Loy’s nose reminds me of Jennifer Grey. In an effort to make her nose “perfect“ she lost her defining feature
Jaguar of Steve McQueen‘s was a very special car. It was a road going version of the racing D type
Only made a few of them before the factory burned down
That is a beautiful picture of Carolyn Jones, whom I have had a crush on ever since I first saw “The Addams Family.” I recall reading somewhere that early in her career she was known as “The Beat Bette Davis” (especially after her starring role in “The Bachelor Party”) and that the nickname irked the real Davis so much that she tried to sabotage Jones’ career.
This is another lovely picture of her, from 1956: https://tinyurl.com/ycb9aw7z
Myrna Loy… she could play an urban, high-society heiress or a sassy tomboy on the farm nextdoor… and leave that nose alone!
Carolyn Jones is cute. It is interesting to see the real side of Morticia.
Audrey Hepburn was an incredible woman.
The watch, while artistically beautiful, is not my cup of tea. I wouldn’t pay 1% of the asking price.
I love the Steve McQueen photo… so much symbolism there.
Well done, Robert.
