Gossip Friday: In Her Hands
From 1941:
The most beautiful pair of book ends I ever saw hold a few of Clark Gable’s favorite books on a night stand beside his bed. They represent a pair of exquisitely molded bronzed hands. They are really the hands of Carole Lombard. From a plaster of Paris impression Carole had the arresting bronzes cast so she could feel she was always, personally, holding Clark’s books ready for him to choose.
