Looks great! Thank you for sharing. Reminds me of the ornaments that my folks have. A lot of their stuff was ornaments from the late 40's early 50's that they acquired over the years and now have them stored away for safe keeping. I think I may have to do a little rummaging soon.;)
Cheers...

A good Tawney Port.
For a stiffer drink, Bombay Blue Saphire Gin Martini. (shaken not stirred)
With my supper I enjoy a Tablas Creek Mourvedre Red or a Roussanne.
With a lunch, unsweetend ice tea.
With breakfast I either take a cup or rocket fuel (camp style coffee) or Earl Grey or Irish...
I grew up with something similar to one of these bad boys.
In a cold bathroom after a shower it would throw out plenty of heat with the convection fan. And since it was portable we could take it out to the work shop in the winter and do our wood work in relative comfort. I think my ol' man...
Well it was a evening of Sir Laurence Olivier on TCM.
I can see why they Knighted him. A fabulous Shakespearian Actor. I only wish that they had played Orson Welles Macbeth. It was so well done in it's time.
Cheers!

Figuring that Nathan Lane & Matthew Broderick have been quite successful on Broasway with the play, It stands to reason that they would do the film as well. Look at Chicago. It translated to film quite well and still maintained that Broadway musical play at the same time.
I think it'll be fun...
Todays lineup on TCM has several good classic Shakespearian films including 1944's Henry V with Sir Laurence Olivier. This is a take or leave it subject for some. But for those that enjoy Shakespear I think these are a must see. The only one that is missing is Orson Wells 1948 MacBeth...
Another one to add would be Boys Town (1938) with Spencer Tracey & Mickey Rooney. Another couple to add would be Bells of St. Mary (1945) & Miracle of Bells (1948). And it wouldn be complete without the two current offerings of the Santa Clause with Tim Allen. Personally I kie the second better...
Last night TCM played the original 1933 King Kong and parallel with that AMC was playing the 1976 version. Wow, that was just day and night there. I can't wait to see Jacksons offering. Complete with the bug canyon sequence.
Cheers!

For the classic comedy & musical minded, just about anything with Bing Crosby, Bob Hope & Fred Astaire. They're all just plain fun to watch. So far my 7 year old loves the Road Show films with Bing & Bob.
Cheers!

Sounds like fun. Have to give that a try as well. I think I can talk my woman into dolling up like that.
If you're interested Tonak's has a good range of fez's.
