The Star Made Me Buy It

Today's star:


Jeanne Crain for Motorola portable radios
While Jeanne was not what anyone would call a great actress, she was pretty and especially suited for 'sweet young thing' roles.  

My mother remembered her fondly in Home in Indiana and Margie.

The Tuesday Song of the Week

I forgot all about this song.

Until I heard it a few months ago in a Barnes & Noble.

Immediately I was yanked back to the early 1990s. and I felt a tug on my insides so so...
I could have cried.  

There was a lot going on in my life in the early 1990s, some good, some bad, but all big-ish stuff that likely went a long way toward turning me into the person I am today.  

The song wasn't my favorite, just one of the things that you'd hear at least a couple times a week on the radio.

The Star Made Me Buy It

Today's star 

Marilyn Maxwell for Max Factor pancake make-up
I don't know Marilyn Maxwell from a cord'a wood, as my hubbage would say.  However, I do remember reading that she was the only woman Rock Hudson truly loved.  

Bag o' the Day

Something fun and wacky from 1922.  I'm thinking the fun wacky-looking lady was perhaps Mae Murray.
