Sally, After "The Unearthly"

‎"Tor (Johnson) was a real challenge to my trying to stick to my fashion model diet. That man could eat everything you threw at him and make you want to join in."

For God's Sake, Ted

Put some Vaseline Intensive Care on them, puh-lease! And clip those nails. For heavens' sake, Man, didn't your Momma teach you anything about hygiene?


Many Thanks to Luna Pancake!

One For The Road

Okay, I will give the 20s/30s a rest for a bit, but before I leave it, here's one last post. 


I know of Bessie Love by way of the ancient "talkie" 'Broadway Melody of 1929'. She plays Hank, one half of the Mahoney Sisters. She is the "homely" sister and struggles in the lovelight of the gorgeous and endearing Anita Page as Queenie Mahoney.


On her own merits, she was a quite attractive lady, and that is apparent in this photograph from "Stars of the Twenties". I particularly like the hairstyle she has here, and she has a nice little body, that is undebatable.


She is great in BM29, but that is not the end of her filmography. She was celebrated as late as the 2000s.


Lovely lady.

A Blinding Pulse of Pulchritude

Yeah, Bette looks damn plush in her 30s-era bathing suit, but I tell you, fellas, Joan Blondell is hiding a corpus that could take you from 6 o'clock to 2 in nothing flat. 


If you can find one of her rare nude photos, you will see I am right.

Cutting It Awfully Close There, Jayney

Jayne Mansfield about to have an accident. But, just between you and me, she had pissant little nipples.

What Have You Been Smoking, Babe?

I honestly do not know where these idiots get the notion that conservative folk (like myself) hate minorities and gay people. Sure, we don't fall down on our knees and worship their "otherness". I have no problem with any of these groups (or individuals within), but I don't like having their differentness flung in my face like they are daring me to be unpleasant towards them. Give me a fucking break.

Have a look at before and after for the once-enchanting Anita Ekberg.

Oh, Richard

"What am I wearing? Well, it's a weird little number, with one of those old Fifties pattern tops accented at the waist with an Eagle scout belt. I'm drinking a milk shake that I made myself. I'm talking to you on this ancient rotary dial telephone sitting on a decidedly distressed and dusty bureau. What else can I say, Dear, I'm a long ways from 'Who's Afraid...'. You should see the look in my eyes. So dead, so bored. Hiding all my savage ambition. Have you been drinking again, you naughty boy?"
