What a great birthday lineup. God bless my wonderful friend Sybil Jason, a sweet, warm and wonderful human being.

On another note, love the placement of the Harpo and Boris pix. (Maybe it would have been more appropriate to place Karloff and John Dehner together). Kindly man that the real Karloff was, even in a smiling pose he could never quite escape that sinister quality that made him such a great screen boogeyman.

I know he couldn't escape it even though he was the kindliest of men. I don't think he disliked anyone, except perhaps Jean Arthur when they were in Peter Pan.

Stone, you were lucky to know the genuinely sweet Sybil Jason. She just about stole "The Little Princess" from Shirley Temple.

Alison, Jean Arthur was known to be a handful at times.

Joe, if you really want to see a showcase of Little Sybil's talents, check out "Little Big Shot". A truly gifted actress. And again, as sweet as she was talented.

Alison, I know a lot about Karloff but never heard he had a problem with Jean Arthur. Hell, he survived working with Lou Costello (twice)!!!

Hi,

Beautiful picture of Jesse Royce Landis - again Joe provides a glamourous photo for us to enjoy.
I'm sure she's 'up there' organizing everyone at a party - "You over there on cloud 17, come drift over here beside me, darling!!"......

Happy Birthday dear lady.

Happy Birthday to the wonderful, wonderful Jeffrey Hunter. I have seen most of his movies and he never got
the praise he deserved.

Again, Happy Birthday.
