14.02.2026 11:30 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0So, as some of you may recall I saw in the New Year playing singles with a dozen members of my family. This year I plan to do an all Scottish line up. So picking up some odds n sods over the last wee bit. Had to involve cd singles as the 7" would cost too much. #weekendsingles

13.02.2026 17:13 β π 3 π 1 π¬ 1 π 0One for #cdfriday, a good compilation but some of the tracks I have elsewhere such as the theme song by the Bodeans. I don't have Stevie Nicks version of Free Fallin' which is pretty good nor the Chaka Khan / Bruce Hornsby song. Then there's Rusted Root, Rickie Lee Jones & more. #cdsky

Back to vintage postcards with Greta Lovisa Gustafsson & Spangler Arlington Brugh or rather Greta Garbo & Robert Taylor. Both major stars in their time and appeared together in the 1936's 'Camille'. Garbo was nominated for her performance, one of four but she was never to win. #FilmSky

11.02.2026 19:23 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Final postcards of the day. Well you can't show the four girls of the March family from Little Women without posting Spring Byington who played Marmee & Edna May Oliver who was Aunt March.
Both were great character actresses and with Spring in particular always a joy to see in any film. #FilmSky
Back to vintage postcards and as I promised more from the cast of 1933's Little Women. Frances Dee played Meg March and Joan Bennet played Amy. #FilmSky

11.02.2026 16:33 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0These postcards came in a joblot on eBay with a lot of poster picture covers. They were obviously from a collector who seperated poster covers & postcards from his 7" collection. He did of course detail via stickers which single they were from but why the hell did he put the sticker to the front!

Back to vintage postcards with Madge Evans & Ramon Novarro. Both started out in silent movies, Madge, 1914 & Ramon 1917. They made two films together, Son of India in 1931 and Huddle a year later.
Ramon was sadly murdered in his home in October 1968 by two intruders looking to rob him. #FilmSky
I have five.
