Mailbag! Errol Flynn & Cary Grant!

Our Mailbag brings a tough question from Jolene, can anybody help her with an answer?
Hi there at The Errol Flynn Blog! I enjoy y’alls blog very much and I was curious. Is there any picture of Errol Flynn and Cary Grant together? An odd question I know but they are my two favorite people/actors so I was just curious. I haven’t found one yet so I thought to ask the great Errol Flynn Blog!
Thanks so much,
Jolene

The Style Of Lili Damita and Olivia leaves town

I had commented on another thread respect a Baby shower for Sean. This shower was given to Lili by several Hollywood notables. No photo unfortunately!
Of course there was a description of what she was wearing: An Orange Angel Skin Swagger Jacket with Gold Buttons (of course!). I managed to find a sample of a 1950’s Swagger Jacket:
But not “Angel skin” and no I don’t think she skinned an angel to get it!
What I missed was the little comment on the same page noting that Olivia De Havilland had gone east (to Boston) for 6 weeks (this would be 1941) to recuperate from her Appendectomy that January. My female intuition tells me – “I don’t want to be here when the child is born” . I wonder.
Thanks to Tim for the additional information and photos of the guests at the baby shower too! The original post is under “Lost Brothers- In Memory of Sean”.

Errol Flynn at the White House

While searching the Franklin D. Roosevelt online library, I happened to remember that EF had been photographed with FDR. I also recalled that he wrote a letter to Eleanor Roosevelt on behalf of his friend Dr Erben who was trying to emigrate to the US. I searched the FDR website and found an entry in the President’s calendar indicating that EF had dinner at the White House on January 29th, 1939, and attended a play (Outward Bound) afterwards. The list includes the other guests as well. The link to the calendar entry is: www.fdrlibrary.marist.edu…
I’ve attached screen capture for reference.
