Gossip Friday: Everything but Cook

From January 1937:

Clark Gable and Carole Lombard visited a phonograph shop not long back, and bought one of those newfangled machines that combine radio, home-recording, loud speaker, and play twenty-four records at a time.

Gable watched its performance, then said to the salesman, “That darn thing does everything but cook.” At which Miss Lombard snickered, “You might say the same of me.”

Congratulations on the anniversary of the beginning of this site!! It has become part of my routine to visit every week and check out the new submissions/photos because they give me just a few moments of reprieve from the world in which we cuurently live. Thank you 🙂 PS: Carole and Clark clearly had the most fun together and I’m so happy they had each other even if for just a little while.
