AN LP COVER FOR TODAY
This is the first movie I ever saw in a theater, in 1954 or 1955. The movie came out in 1952, so it would have been a re-release. I was four or five at the time. I still have vivid memories of it, especially the music.

A SILENT MOVIE POSTER FOR TODAY
NEW ORLEANS LADY
Viña Delmar was a prolific and popular 20th-Century novelist, playwright and screenwriter, now almost completely forgotten, except perhaps for her screen adaptation of Arthur Richman’s play The Awful Truth, starring Cary Grant and Irene Dunne, for which she received an Academy Award nomination.
She specialized in slightly racy romances. New Orleans Lady looks intriguing.
VINTAGE LAS VEGAS
16mm home movies of Las Vegas from 1962. The soundtrack doesn’t quite fit but the image are priceless.
With thanks to reader Jim Erskine.
