Stopped into a Antique store, first thing that caught my eye was the very old family photos, it breaks my heart people got rid of these.
So have decided to adopt them the first couple is from Cleveland, Ohio, second is from Rochestor, New York, and final may possibly be mother and son from Chicago, Illinois.
I also found a very, very cool old glass with a famous Hollywood starlet on it from the 1920's can anyone take a guess who the Blonde Bombshell is???

Bingo!!! Ruby wins the prize!! Hehe..... I have always loved Mae West as soon as I discovered her through the the musical Dirty Blonde which is loosely based on her life. What a true character she was!!!! Long before Marilyn, there was Mae West!!!

@chrissbergstrom I think Mae West was the beginning of bad girl movie stars.

@Courtlynn yes exactly just because one generation doesn't care doesn't mean the following generation won't either.

Is that a pistol in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?
She has so many great quotes

She was a star before her time she was censored many times as many did not like her type of performance and found it to raunchy for the 1930s

@chrissbergstrom The same people who objected to Mae West should see our movies now.

I can't think of who she is right now. I love old black and white photos. I have one of my grandparents. I think they are classics. Maybe there is a reason they did not save them.
