Description and Notes:

#1-10: Cary Grant (#9 and #10 also respectively featuring Katharine Hepburn and Grace Kelly). #3 won Mod's choice at classics_stills, #9 won first place at classicicontest, and #10 won second place at silver_lims.

#11-18: Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, together and separately. I quite like a few of these, although they met with no success in the challenge they were made for. (In case it needs clarifying, #18 is a spoof of those iPod advertisements of a few years ago. *g*)

#19-26: Dick Powell (#21 also featuring Ruby Keeler). #19 and #20 won first and second place at classicicontest.

#27-32: Alice Faye. #30 won second place at classicicontest.

33-37: Joan Blondell. No challenge entries here--just some good old Joan cuteness. :)

#38: Bud Abbott and Lou Costello.

#39: Danny Kaye.

#40: Clara Bow and Fredric March. This icon won first place at classicicontest.

#41: William Powell and Myrna Loy.

#42: Olivia de Havilland and Errol Flynn (in The Adventures of Robin Hood, of course.)

By the way, I thought I should give notice that my iconage for this month may be less prolific. I've lately been feeling an urge to write instead of playing around in PaintShop, so hopefully I can put some time toward striking at my literary aspirations while the iron is hot. *g*

Excellent....like always!

I snagged too many to count. (1, 3, 4, 5, 8, 10, 12, 14, 21, 22, 32, 34, 35, 38, 41, & 42.)

[jordannamorgan]

Thank you! :)

Taking #39.

And oo, what kind of writing?

[jordannamorgan]

Thanks--and thanks for your interest! :)

Hopefully it's something with the potential to be a novel or ten one of these days, if my muse will cooperate. 1930s-era, of course. *g* But I've been making sporadic efforts to get my literary ideas to coalesce for ten years, so I can't get my hopes up too much. :Þ

(I have written fanfiction for years, incidentally. X-Men, LXG, obscure scifi TV... and yes, even a couple of classic subjects. It's all at my site or on Fanfiction.net.)
