Costume Commentary

  1. Thanks James, I completely overlooked this one in the catalog (I’ve found it now) because I did not even recognize it! Looks like it was made over pretty heavily sometime after 1946. In the catalog it says that the tag says it was worn by someone by the name of Merelyn Kingsley. There are only two films she could have worn it in, and that is The Hoodlum Saint and Showboat, so I will have to look both of those up and see if I can find it.

  2. I figured you would find more. I’m not familiar with these films at all, but I knew, when I can across this upload, that you would love it. 🙂
