Great, very interesting find, Maria. Thank you.

Betsy Bloomingdale on our left, Carol Marcus (Grace) on our right. Errol in the middle, looking very well behaved. That’s a pretty long train G.V.’s got there, even for a Vanderbilt, isn’t it?

What a small town Unhollywood was in that days. And an underworld, too. Pat the C(h)icco was the cousin of James Bond producer Cubby Broccoli, Lucky Luciano`s henchman and Thelma Todd`s Ex (-ec!?). On the other hand Charly Wrightsman was Freddie McEvoy`s ungracious father- in-law and as we learned here Errol`s unchivalric rival in love…
