I had a friend who was a film cutter and had worked with the guy who took this picture.
He said that at a party after finishing a film, Joan left the party & he saw her headingh for the potty. He ran & got his 4X5 camera.

My friend must have been a very good friend of the photographer because he had some 4×5 contact prints. I bought one.

My wife made some interesting comments about the barber.

I remembering hearing that many actresses of that era had to shave in case something showed through their underwear, especially in wet scenes.

Is it me or do women of that era have the most gorgeously perfect to die for figures?

All valleys and mountains.

Why a lot of girls today want to starve themselves to a size zero is beyond me.

Just how sure are we that this is Joan Blondell? Seems like the gal in the photo is prettier than Joan. BTW, I am a Blondell fan.

quote:
This is a famous photo of Joan Blondell, taken one day when she “streaked” on the set.

If she knew she was going to streak, then maybe she prepared by shaving — or maybe she is a woman who does not have much hair down there — had a gf once whose hair would not show up on an old grainy photo.

I know where this photo was taken. I also know who the guys in the backround are. It may be Joan Blondell but it wasn’t on a movie set.
