We MUST!

Another classic gossip article from the '70s. (I think this was from one of Rona Barrett's publications).

Barbra's box office

I photographed the top photo of the free-standing ticket booth on one of my studio tours of Warner Brother's back lot. I, of course, instantly recognized it from For Pete's Sake (I'm sure you do, too). Nobody else on the tour seemed to appreciate it's Streisand pedigree. Go figure, everyone was into those Harry Potter movies. It's still in use today as seen in this clip from Big Bang Theory.

What's Up, Doc? on campus

I got to see What's Up, Doc? at Texas A&M while there. If you remember, Judy Maxwell studied veternarian medicine at Texas A&M. Of course, the audience whooped it up when she mentions it in the movie.

I got this shot from a window also.

Getting into this area of Union Station has been elusive to me so far. Every time I go to L.A. I make a special trip here to see if it's open. So far no luck. The best I can do is photograph it through a window. Eventually, I will get inside and get better shots.

Inside Union Station this is the area next to the lobby. The train track letters aren't the same. Tracks I and J aren't in this location anymore. I'm pretty sure train tracks E and F are the location now.

Union Station hasn't changed much since filming.

Barbra retires!

You heard it here first!

Nancy Giles on CBS Sunday Morning

Nancy Giles did a feature about saving money on the CBS Sunday Morning show earlier this year. She talked about how long it took to save up $10 in her passbook savings account- at which time she went to a record store and bought albums with it. I'm assuming these are the albums she bought with her life savings.
