Pages from the Minneapolis-St. Paul edition of TV Guide from New Year's Eve, 1970. Compare this to the wall-to-wall debauchery that was on television this past New Year's Eve. The CBS affiliate was running Laurel & Hardy's classic "The Music Box" in front of the Guy Lombardo Special, Johnny Carson had his own New Year's bash with coverage from Times Square (before Dick Clark started doing that) and even the Rev. Rex Humbard had his own religious-themed New Year's show. My how times change...

TV Guide pages (Minneapolis-St. Paul edition) promoting an NBC variety special sponsored by Kodak that aired on December 6, 1970 featuring Dick Van Dyke and Bill Cosby.
Included in this special: "a Judgement Day sketch with Cosby as a playboy and Van Dyke as the angel Gabriel." (Supposedly nobody knew about the "real" Bill Cosby back then...)
The rock show on educational (PBS) station Channel 2 featuring San Francisco rock including Jefferson Airplane and Quicksilver Messenger Service was quite daring for that otherwise staid TV station at the time.

Found the TV Guide with the recipes on eBay last week. I'm so excited to share them. Kraft was the sponsor for "A Christmas Toy" in 1986. Instead of running regular commercials, Kraft ran recipes during the breaks.

Posing as a airline stewardess in this classic outfit based on Pan Am uniform in 1950s. I bought this on ebay about 15 years ago where seller listed it as theatrical quality, which it is. I had to squeeze into it because my bustline somewhat too big (I could have used smaller breast forms but I didn’t). The heels are probably too high, I am wearing a bra and girdle so compliant with the standards Pan Am and other airlines back then.
UPDATE: I found the website that appears to sell this outfit (I originally bought it on ebay). Several costumes, the one particular is “Stewardess Costume T1146.514.55,” from $239.99

This outfit might have still been in fashion when Pan Am began flying the 707 in 1958 (it was replaced with newer design shortly after). Details of stewardess uniforms below.
I found this photo of a Pan Am 707 on tarmac for my greenscreen background. Registry for this 707-321B, N880PA S/N 20019, shows it built and certified in 1968, cancelled in 1984. Aircraft was retired to Davis-Monthan, Flickr photo of it here www.flickr.com/photos/ian_e_abbott/14513571181
Back in the days of “coffee, tea, or me?” cabin crew were called stewardesses, flight crew were pilot, co-pilot, flight engineer. Aircraft had turbojet engines with no bypass that were LOUD and streamed huge amounts of smoke on takeoff. They served meals, drinks, and passengers can light up a smoke (yes, that smoking/non-smoking lighted sign had a purpose). Later years crew was named flight attendants, captain, first officer (no longer any flight engineers).
However, at my age I am way too old to be an airline stewardess as back in those days, stewardesses cannot be older than 30 (some airlines maximum age 35).
Buy the book “Coffee, Tea, or Me?” on Amazon at www.amazon.com/printing-uninhibited-stewardesses-high-fly...
Couple articles about early Pan Am days spell out details of stewardesses have to wear girdles (which I do here), longline bras (I wore regular bra), and short white gloves. The official Pan Am uniforms had a certain blue color only Pan Am had.
“Pan Am flight attendants recall glamour, adventure” at www.eastbaytimes.com/2011/09/20/pan-am-flight-attendants-...
“we had to wear girdles and nylons and wear our hair a certain length.” The Pan Am ladies said they remember how proud they felt in their blue uniforms walking in a group through the airport.
“From Pillbox Hat to Bullet Bra: The Anatomy of a Pan Am Stewardess Uniform” at www.tvguide.com/news/pan-am-stewardess-costume-1038550/
“The girdle keeps you from being able to do anything boyish like run or jump or take any large flights of stairs. The longline is a bra attached to a mini-corset so it basically makes you stand up really, really straight... You have to walk like a lady at all times, so immediately you’re just put into this mindset of ‘I’m a lady. I sit a certain way. I walk a certain way.”
“The reason for the girdle was so that they didn’t jiggle because it wasn’t ladylike. The girdle just kept everything very, very close to the body and contained. And when you have a bullet bra on, which is a longline, you didn’t want to be poking through your bra if it was cold if you know what I mean. So, those bras were thicker than what we have today. With those bullet bras, you have to stand straight or else you look silly and it ruins the line.”
October 31, 1964. "BING." stamp (for "Binghamton") added by local magazine distributor. John Astin and Carolyn Jones of ABC's "The Addams Family."

THE WEDDING NIGHT (1935 )
• Actors: Gary Cooper, Anna Sten, Ralph Bellamy, Helen Vinson, Sig Ruman
• Directors: King Vidor
Cooper stars as a troubled writer (reportedly modeled after F. Scott Fitzgerald) whose latest manuscript fails to impress. On the advice of his publisher, he retreats to a Connecticut farmhouse with his devoted wife, Vinson, where he hopes to get back in touch with his roots as a writer. He soon meets a Polish farm girl, Sten, and is enthralled by her simple ways and philosophies. Their talks become more frequent, and, when Vinson complains of the confines of the country, Cooper suggests that she return home to New York City for a while. Cooper becomes increasingly interested in Sten and decides to use her and her heritage as the basis of his new novel. He then learns that she has been betrothed by her puritanical father, Rumann, to the rather drab Bellamy. Sten has no feelings of love for her betrothed, so she sets her sights on Cooper, spending time cleaning his house and listening to the drafts of his latest chapters. One day a particularly violent snowstorm brews; Sten is forced to spend the night with Cooper, who makes romantic advances but decides instead to retreat to his bedroom alone. Rumann, in a fit of rage, rushes through the snow to Cooper's and drags his daughter back. Convinced that she is up to no good, Rumann demands that she marry Bellamy within the next two days. Sten is determined to fight her father's wishes and returns to Cooper's farmhouse, where she finds that Vinson has also come back. After reading the draft of Cooper's novel, Vinson easily deduces that the lead character, "Sonya," is really Sten and convinces the farmgirl that she will not be able to lure Cooper away. Sten relents and marries Bellamy, but spurns his advances on their wedding night when he suggests that she has lost her virginity to Cooper. In a drunken rage, Bellamy heads for Cooper's. Sten goes along to warn Cooper. The confrontation comes to a head at Cooper's on a staircase. In the midst of the brawl between the two men, Sten falls down the stairs and dies as Cooper admits his love for her. A love triangle with a high tragedy ending, THE WEDDING NIGHT just didn't make much of an impression on the Depression-era audiences. Although the film has a great deal of artistic merit--Goldwyn's influence, Vidor's directorial skill, and Toland's sharp photography--it fell victim to indifference on the part of moviegoers. Goldwyn had been determined to make his Russian-born discovery, Sten, a star of the magnitude of Greta Garbo or Marlene Dietrich, and there was no real reason he shouldn't have succeeded. He commissioned his friend Knopf to write a scenario specifically for Sten, hoping to succeed where her previous vehicles--NANA and RESURRECTION--had failed. Goldwyn even found himself on the set to help pack a Cooper-Sten love scene with all the sexual energy he could muster. Stepping into Vidor's shoes for a while, Goldwyn began to coach the actors, exclaiming "If this scene isn't the greatest love scene ever put on film, then the whole goddamned picture will go right up out the sewer!" Well, it wasn't, and though the film didn't "go right up out the sewer," it did, unfortunately for Sten and Goldwyn, leave the audience unimpressed. Sten was soon gone from Hollywood, remembered only as "Goldwyn's Folly" or "The Edsel of the Movie Industry." THE WEDDING NIGHT did mark a momentous return for Cooper to Goldwyn's company, which 10 years previously let Cooper slip away to Paramount. In addition to dealing with Sten's thick accent (she received endless vocal coaching to subdue it), director Vidor had Cooper's laconic delivery to worry about. "I remember well the first day I directed him," Vidor recalled in his book King Vidor on Film Making. "He had difficulty remembering or speaking two or three sentences consecutively. We had to stop the camera again and again and put the scene together piecemeal. This was one of his early speaking parts: he had not needed words before to communicate." The Goldwyn-Cooper marriage was short-lived, however, as the actor returned to Paramount for his very next picture, THE LIVES OF A BENGAL LANCER. It would be another eight years before Cooper would return to Goldwyn in THE ADVENTURES OF MARCO POLO (opposite Goldwyn's next discovery, Sigrid Gurie) and 14 years before he would reunite with Vidor in THE FOUNTAINHEAD.

Frank James Cooper
Seu verdadeiro nome era Frank James Cooper. Gary Cooper interpretou um dos heróis cinematográficos mais conhecidos e queridos do público, lutando sempre pela justiça, no western intitulado Matar ou Morrer (1952), de Fred Zinnemann, por cujo desempenho foi premiado com um Oscar (o segundo, após ter recebido um por Sargento York, de 1941). Cooper personificou sempre, exceção feita a alguns papéis em comédias, o herói obstinado, de palavras simples, valente, lacônico e solitário, sobretudo em seus westerns, embora também em dramas de aventuras e comédias amorosas. Interpretou o papel principal em Ruas da Cidade (1931), Adeus às Armas (1932), A Oitava Esposa de Barba Azul (1938), Por Quem os Sinos Dobram (1943, baseado no romance homônimo de Ernest Hemingway e no ambiente da Espanha da Guerra Civil), A Felicidade Bate à Sua Porta (1948), Sangue da Terra (1953), Vera Cruz (1954), e O Homem do Oeste (1958). Pouco antes de morrer, recebeu um Oscar honorífico pelo conjunto de sua carreira.

"When you first try it, the tobacco may move around in your mouth more than it should, and your mouth may water a bit more than you're used to, but getting the hang of 'going smokeless' is all part of the fun. In a couple of weeks you'll be a 'pro.'" And addicted.
