Bless Zeigfield


Clearly the fellow was an old letch, but what's not to love in this little collection Iconista stumbled over at Vintage Photograhs?

Big Dress Day

Those of you who know Iconista well will know her strange passion for dresses you can sweep floors with, not to mention ornaments, occassional furniture and anything else that gets in the way. She can not explain this ridiculous side to her nature, but it's as close to romantic as she gets, so make the most of it.

Don't simper, dear. You look like a poodle asking to be let out.


That Hamilton Woman. If you know a more dismissive film title, do tell.

Catherine Moylan. That's all the information Iconista has.

The original romantic. Gave new meaning to the word droopy.

That Pickford woman.
Just keep tightening, Leslie.

Pannini and Piranesi

Don't ask Iconista to explain herself. She has to store this stuff somewhere and you're grown up enough to handle it.
Breathe it in. Spit it out. Iconista doesn't care which. Just don't mess with it because she needs it for future reference.

Domestic Goddesses

The only time Iconista heads for the kitchen is to fetch ice. She doesn't want to know the way to a man's heart. She's been there. It's dull. Slaving over a hot stove is for women who like to please. Iconista would rather starve.

These little cuties seem to disagree, though you know as well as Iconista that they're posing for the camera. Trying to please in their own small way.
