Remembering her angel day
Carole & Co. Posted by carole_and_co on Jan 16, 2016

Lombard, au naturel? (Quasi-NSFW)
Carole & Co. Posted by carole_and_co on Jan 14, 2016
Carole Lombard was no stranger to provocative photos, particularly when pictured by Pathe's ace photographer, William E. Thomas. But did she ever cross the line into nudity, even tasteful "art" poses? Her contemporary Jean Harlow posed for such images, such as this from Edwin Bower Hesser at Griffit read more

For now, say goodbye to Hollywood
Carole & Co. Posted by carole_and_co on Jan 9, 2016
It pains me to write this entry, since for now this probably is the last one I'll write from Los Angeles, the city Carole Lombard called home for most of her much too brief life.
