Gossip Friday: A Quick Trip

From February 1937:

One of the shortest flights on record was Clark Gable’s trip to New York. He planned a 10-day vacation to see plays, especially “Idiot’s Delight”, which he is to do for the films. He saw “Idiot’s Delight”, but he also discovered it was the delight of his fans to mob him wherever he went. So Mr. G., disguised as an unidentified citizen, sneaked through the Holland Tunnel to Newark and grabbed a plane back to Hollywood. Incidentally, when he left for the East, the Sunday airport sightseers were treated to something a little extra when Carole Lombard handed her hero quite a demonstrative send-off.
