Wow! I am truly impressed with so many photos that are new to me.
The first 1950's photo of Doris holding a cloth fabric looks like it might be from the time she moved into her home in Touluca Lake.
Doris' hand written letter to Bill is an amazing surprise. This is a big treasure.
I am fascinated by the album cover photos that have photos I have not seen before. I have all three original albums that belonged go my father. They have different covers.
The photo of 30 images ov Doris; are they playing cards?
I love the August 1962 Look Magazine Billy Rose's Jumbo cover. I don't recall seeing it before. The film was released in December 1962. Hopefully, current reviewers will be kinder to this well produced, acted film with a brilliant musical score. It remains a wonderful, entertaining family film.
The Thrill of It All photo of Doris in the basket of tomatoes reminds us how great Doris was at physical comedy.
The photo of Doris covered in soap suds is new to me. It almost looks like Doris being an angel with a halo.
The Midnight Lace poster looks like an Italian movie poster with heightened colour's.
The Doris Day autograph on the napkin looks like she was in a hurry.
The 1950 Tea for Two on set photo is really interesting. There is so much going on.
The 1955 Who's Who in Music Records photo is new to me.
The No No Nanette ( Tea for Two) is striking and gives a much more modern image for a period film.
I love the photo of Doris holding the record. It looks like it is around 1950.
I have the June 1982 Journal magazine with exclusive interview, Doris Day Today.
I wonder if there are still any Hollywood Lapel Lockets are still around. It is hard yo believe they were only 35 cents.
Thank you Peter for posting another amazing and surprising collection of Doris Day photos.
The photos are endlessly fascinating and z wonderful cultural history lesson.
By good luck - or fate - I was st the supermarket checkout today and happened to turn around and there was Doris staring at me from a magazine cover. The magazine is the Australian Womens Weekly, not a magazine that would normally interest me - but hey - whats a guy to do!
The Mag was doing a whole edition on Hollywood Icons - and Doris and Rock were featured in a 4 double page spread entitled "Dynamic Duos". My first thoughts were that Doris deserved a spread in her own right, but something is better than nothing I guess.
The article was pretty accurate with nothing new to glean, but it was all very glossily done and there were a few on set pix that I dont recall seeing before.
Anyway I've taken some pix of the article and will post them here...or try to!!
Apokogies in advance for the quality- but you'll get the idea.
