While hanging out at my Mom’s place during the now-world-famous game night, I took the opportunity to go on a hunting expedition in search of any photos that I might use on this website. My ultimate goal was to locate an elusive photo album from the mid-1980’s. It did not turn up on this day – but eventually did on the one detailed here.

I wrote to Jane Russell on May 23, 1985 – mostly because I had purchased a photo of her through Carl Ahlm’s photo catalog. I had purchased this particular photo because A) It was in color, and B) It showed two hot women, one of them being Marilyn Monroe. I had never seen a single movie with Jane Russell at that point, but knew who she was. A careful check of The Film Encyclopedia indicated some of the famous titles of films she was in: The Outlaw, The Paleface, and of course the film from which the photo below was taken: Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. Ms. Russell also was kind enough to send along the additional signed photo above – in addition to signing the one below.
