Today's star is Rosalind Russel for 1847 Rogers Brothers flatware
Unlike most of the rest of my star ads, this one doesn't mention what movie the star is currently in. Just that 'Lovely Rosalind Russell, currently starring in Columbia Pictures.'
The ad mentions the war and war bonds and that, which dates it to the early 1940s.
She was great in The Trouble with Angels, and in Gypsy. The one she's probably best known for - Auntie Mame - I must be the only person alive that didn't really care for that one. Not that Roz was bad in it, it's just that the character she played seems so impressed with herself.
