I've been a busy one! Lolita of Lolita's Classics (a simply super blog that all of you should be following!) asked me to be her first guest blogger, so I wrote up a little review on Harold Lloyd's masterpiece "The Kid Brother", 1927. I hope I did the movie proper justice!
First of all - how does everyone like the new header? :)
And now to business. I was very pleased with the response all of you gave for part 1 of the silent star's homes, and I hope you like this second part of the series just as much! Again, if you click on the photograph you can view a slightly larger version, as these are really best when viewed as large as possible.
Hello readers! I hope you all had a happy New Year! I took a bit of a break from blogging over December, (I actually forgot about my one year bloggiversary - it was December 26) but I am back again! So today I'm doing a post about something I got for Christmas last year - a set of souvenir color views of movie stars' homes c.1922!
The set came in it's original little paper envelope with room for address and stamp (unused), but the envelope is in kind of rough condition (somebody at some point got a little too excited when opening and tore it), and five cards from the set are missing, but the remaining 15 are in gorgeous condition! Not torn, not yellowed, not faded, and the paper is still stiff. I thought you all might like to take a look! (Click on the photo to view the image a little bit larger - they really look best as big as you can get them!)
My first guest post was published today!! It's a short history of one of my most favorite subjects, Cliff Edwards, for Kate Gabrielle's utterly wonderful blog, "Silents and Talkies", and she made a gorgeous sketch to match!
