At the Speakeasy.


Do you suppose this was at the old Speakeasy in Baton Rouge? It was located on Stanford, across from University Lakes in the early 1970s, but I would have thought it’s demise pre-dated ZZ Top.

Edit: ZZ Top was around TX and LA back then.

Jerome Horwitz, famous for playing CURLY in "THE THREE STOOGES", was known to all as a protector of dogs. Curly's contract with Columbia Pictures included a clause that allowed his dogs to accompany him on the studio lot.

When the Stooges were out on the road, Curly took it upon himself to find a new home for at least one stray dog ??in every town they visited. Curly is estimated to have saved and rescued more than 5,000 dogs in his lifetime.

Back in 1965, Ford introduced the Wrist-Twist steering system, aiming to offer a more comfortable driving experience and an improved view of both the road and dashboard instruments.

Ford claimed that this distinct set of small wheels would make parallel parking effortless. However, concerns were raised about the system’s potential drawbacks in emergency situations.

Jan Smithers in her young model days. How about a Fresca?






Jan also was a singer before her WKRP days. Here she is on a Midnight Special episode hosted by Doc Severinsen, featuring Henry Mancini. Jan is performing in a group led by Henry Mancini's son, Chris. Mancini mentions Jan by name in the intro. If I don't link it correctly, it starts at exactly the 37 minute mark. LINK

1952, Coronet Mag ran from 1936 to 1971. I'd like to read their take on Pope Pius XII. He was the Pope during WW2.

The clarity of the photo and the general feel make me think this might be a modern recreation.
