More Fur Fantasy Pictures ...

Picked these up at the Post Office from a gift of a friend that collects pictures like me.

Top Photograph
Picture taken in 1942, on her way to a Hollywood Party that evening ... Possibly having Victor Mature as an escort/guest. I don't know that for sure.

Bottom Photograph
Picture taken late 1953 for a Magazine Spread. Another of her countless modeling gigs throughout her career.

Unusual Picture in 1946

This is one of the most unusual photograph that I ever seen in my lifetime of Rita Hayworth. My friend also gave me this photograph as a gift and she told me that this photograph was taken late 1946 during the time that she did Gilda. I just loved it.

Rita Hayworth Pictures in 1955
Glamour Pictures ... Simply Breathtaking

Many Collectors thought that these are from Down to Earth back in 1947. They are not these pictures were taken in early 1955 when her failed movie project "Joseph and the Brethren" failed because Mr. Cohn put the damper on the whole movie project that was brimmed with so much controversy that never really came to play. So, these were used for advertising, magazines, and what not.

The one on top is getting rarer and rarer with each passing year.

Hi Erik,

I have never seen "The Happy Thieves"; and I wish TCM would run it.
Nice to see pictures of it though of Rex and Rita... Thanks!!

It's great that you have a beneficial collection of someone and something beautiful.
I'm sure I don't need to tell you that Miss Hayworth walked in beauty and was always and ever a STAR!!!!

All the best for 2013 and beyond.
Larry
