Never heard of her... funny how time works.
ReplyDeleteThe stars back in the day did the "serious" down to business pose unlike the tanned, sparkling tooth phony smiles the nitwits today employ.
ReplyDeleteThe only reason I had heard of her, she was referenced in a book by Louis L'Amour. In the story as a child she was performing in a mining camp and how miners, cowboys, etc., would travel great distances to see her and their deportment was very good since she was a just a child unlike their normal behavior.
ReplyDeleteGet a couple of beers in her, loosen her up a bit and she looks like she might be a good time.
ReplyDeleteThe picture doesn't do her justice. She was an amazingly beautiful woman.
