I thought it would be fun to have another look at our favorite stars with their fabulous cars. You may recall that I usually get my When Fur Was Fabulous posts underway by this time every year but with this warm weather I can't bear to look at stars in heavy fur. Not when I'm still in shorts and t-shirts most days.
Clark Gable poses in his roadster.
Frank Sinatra tries to assist his wife, Ava Gardner while out for a drive. (Would love a thought bubble here!)
Jane Greer takes a moment to pose next to her coupe.
Richard Widmark looks pretty proud of his wheels.
Clara Bow looks adorable as she poses in her Cadillac Sedan in front of her luxurious, Los Angeles home.
Dick Powell, looking quite happy to pose next to his Packard at his Beverly Hills home.
Dorothy Jordan poses next to her tank. (I wonder if she puts out fires on her days off?)
Irene Dunne shows off the latest fashion and her '36 Packard.
Jack Benny at home with his shiny new Packard.
Doug and Mary Pickford take a moment to smile for the cameras during happier times next to their 2 Door Coupe.
Dorothy Malone shows off her summer wear and a shiny new car.
I hope you're all enjoying this gorgeous winter weather in a fabulous car of your own.
See ya soon!

Thanks for stopping by.

Actually, it's warmed up a little in the past couple of days. But I'm sure you hardly ever see snow out there in OKC. That's alright though. I'm not hatin'. Much. :-p
DeleteI want Clara Bow's Cadillac, but my fave is Dorothy Jordan and your comment about putting out fires on her day off.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, SS.
DeleteI'm fond of Clara in her enormous Cadillac too. I hope Jordan had a chauffeur. I can't picture her navigating that boat around on the early, narrow streets of LA.

Another winner as always. Thought bubble -- Ava: I can't get this car in reverse. Frank: It's our marriage that's in reverse.
ReplyDeleteLove it, Bryan! I can so see them saying that.
DeleteGood hearing from you.

I love the older cars, like Clara's and Douglas'and Mary's. And I realy want Sinatra to help me parking a car!
ReplyDeleteKisses!
I think I would hire a couple of carjackers to get Jack Benny's and Clara Bows' cars -- those are my favorites. My little Saturn would look like a scooter sitting next to those fabulous behemoths!
ReplyDeleteBecks,
DeleteI'm guessing these actors had chauffeurs on most occasions. Can you imagine Bow tooling around in that tank in LA, trying to park or stay in her own lane while checking herself out in the mirrors? She would eventually downsize to small two door Phaetons and Packard convertibles.
Thanks for stopping by to view these old pics. I just love these candids.
