Tony Curtis and Janet Leigh on the set of "Houdini"

Donna Reed enjoying a cup of coffee before her long day of filming starts.

  1. I just love these posts, Page. If course I am always happy to see my honey, Errol Flynn, in a picture I have not seen before. Boy this is a good one! And you know, I think Joan Blondell is just a knock-out. I understand that George C. Scott thought Joan was the most beautiful woman on screen. Great pics and captions, as always!

  2. I forgot, beautiful pics of Tony Curtis. If I ever decided to be disloyal to Errol, Tony is someone who catches my eye!

  3. Becky,
    I thought you might like that one of Errol! I guess he's all yours as long as I can swoon over George Sanders and Cary Grant. I've never been a huge fan of Tony Curtis but I saw an early film with Ricardo Montalban last night and Hubba Hubba, he was gorgeous.

  4. I own the rifle Gary Cooper is holding in the photo above. Any idea where I could get a high resolution copy of that photo?
