This another surprising and impressive group of Doris photos. The photo of the signatures of the of Les Brown band is a big surprise. Looking at Doris Day's signature, it is clean and neat , a shade on the smaller side as compared with some others on the page.
The photo of the gold record says the title of the song is "Magic" , not "It's Magic '.
I love the photos of Doris at the baseball game iñ 1954. I don't recall seeing these before. She looks so happy with the baseball players. It brings to mind Doris playing baseball in On Moonlight Bay.
The black and white photos of Doris trying on jewelry are new to me. Doris' hairstyle looks much the one she had in The West Point Story.
Thank you again Peter for all your excellent work.
A pleasure hearing from you and yes a few great finds this week. Hope you are enjoying life. Weather here is not good, but the free week off was.

This is another interesting and charming Doris collection. The first ROTHS photo is new to me. I really like Doris' hairstyle up. Like Doris, her hair in Please Don "t Eat the Daisies, is timeless and classic.
The 1958 photo looks so contemporary and modern. It is striking.
What I find interesting about the 1963 Golden Globes photo is that Doris is wearing a fur coat. I am wondering what year Doris made the decision to stop wearing fur. She founded her animal foundation in 1978.
The beautiful 1962 photo of Doris sitting on the set is new to me. I love the pensive look on her face.
The Universal 50th anniversary photo prompted my interest in its> history. it opened April 30 -1912. There have been nine fires on the backlot since it opened .In 1967 part of Spartacus Square was destroyed by fire, On June 1 - 2008, a fire damaged 40,000 to 50, 000 archived digital copies of videos and films dating back to the 1920 s including Knocked Up and Atonement , as well as TV shows Law & Order , The Office. Miami Vice, and I Love Lucy. The good news is the studio had more copies.
I love the photo of the WHIR Monday night television schedule. I checked out WHIR and found it is in central Kentucky. I didn't recall Doris' show being on at 9;30. Mayberry RFD ended in 1871, while the other shows went on to later in the 1970 s.
The fashion show photo of Doris in the silver gown looks very similar to the one in the February 2nd post. It looks too fussy for Doris and does not match her classic simplicity.
The photo of Doris in the plaid top and yellow shawl is new to me, She looks gorgeous,
Thanks so much Peter for such an amazing collection.
I don't know if you have Netflix, but if you do. you might enjoy the Screen Actors Guild Awards. It is a lot of fun.
I hope the weather in the Netherlands improves. Take heart, spring starts on March 19th. I can see the little buds on the trees. So far this winter we have very little snow. February has been sunny which usually means it is very cold.
I am so happy to see posts from Michael, Howard and Rennie. I hope one day Jas will post.
Thank you so much for your kind words. And you know I love finding new photos. And, yes I know, still looking to find out how to get photo's from my phone or camera on here. It doesn't work the way I hoped it should. So we have to do it with everything we find online.
And I will do this as long as possible. We need to keep the Doris Day legacy alive.
