Furthermore, we have one wallpaper, featuring James Cagney (along with George Raft, Stanley Ridges, Maxie Rosenbloom, and others) in Each Dawn I Die. It was previously posted to jamescagney.

Thank you! :)

*chortle* I was hoping to snag a Joel MacRae or two. And as for the new Saint icon...!

[jordannamorgan]

Thanks! :)

(And, um... you never answered my question last time you left a comment at my journal. I just want to know that what I sent got there okay.)

ETA: finally got today's mail--and found the *other* Eddie in it. :D GangsterMovieSquee! *HUGS*

[nuranar.livejournal.com]

(Ah, um... Yes! Everything received just fine - and I flat-out forgot to tell you! Thanks so much - you're a doll!)

I even kinda forgot I sent you that! Out of sight, out of mind, y'know. :p I was back at the antique mall and we had way too much fun in the book aisle. (I got 20+ Tarzan books for $1 apiece! Someone had just cleared out a collection.) I had the wrong brother along so we couldn't find that gangster book with Cagney on the cover (which didn't break my heart since I suspect it was the dud you recently acquired), but I did find the "other Eddie" book and thought you might enjoy it. The pictures seemed kinda small to me and not super quality, but there sure are a heck of a lot of them! I leafed through and found one Cagney picture and two Frank McHugh pictures (very small) - all focusing on Eddie, of course, so I'm not sure they'll be useful in that respect. At least it got a GangsterMovieSquee! :D

[jordannamorgan]

That picture with Cagney was one I hadn't seen! :D (It has already been duly scanned, too. *g*) I haven't yet looked thoroughly enough to see the Frank pics--I'll have to do that now!

(I've been having a mysterious bout of not-wellness in my innards lately, and today has been the worst yet, so the book definitely brightened my evening. :) )

[nuranar.livejournal.com]

Good! I hadn't seen it, either, but that didn't prove anything. ;)

I'm very glad my contribution arrived at a good moment. Are you feeling better yet?

[jordannamorgan]

Well, *that's* better, yes. Now it's attacks of inexplicable stabby pains between my shoulder blades. :Þ

It's really been something new *every day* for a month. If not some weird physical thing with me, it's a bizarre technical glitch of some kind. *facepalm* Never mind big problems, I'd just like one day without any of these little needling snafus so I could clear my head...

[strangemuses.livejournal.com]

Asta! hahaha! So cute!

These are all lovely, as usual. I've taken each of the Claude Rains and the Bogart icons. (And Asta!)

[jordannamorgan]

Thank you! :)

[januaried.livejournal.com]

36 and 37 - OH MY GOD!! Someone besides me and my mom has heard of The Court Jester! *twirls with glee, snatches the icons and dances happily*

[jordannamorgan]

*laughs* Aww, The Court Jester has quite a few fans! :D And I have a lot more Danny Kaye/Court Jester icons, too. You can find them all here. :)

[januaried.livejournal.com]

Sweet, thanks so much! :D

Ah, see, I am not at all surprised that 40 won 1st place, because it is sheer brilliance.
