How Does This Even Make Sense? Oh Wait... It Doesn't: Part 3 of My Publicity Parade!

How Does This Even Make Sense?
Oh Wait... It Doesn't:
Part 3 of My Publicity Parade!
Oh my, I have a confession to make, I, Apollo, am addicted to publicity stills. Now, before you recoil in horror, let me explain my problem... Well it all started when I was 5 years old and-Well I think it began when-Ya' know, I think the best way to let you understand is to show you. So without further adue, let's go look at some funny publicity stills!

Clara:
Again with the igloo, I don't get it!

Bow + Glyn = Underwear

 Ummm, why is Clara wearing a proto-Madonna Bra
and sitting on my roof?

 I love her baby-face, she was sooo cute

I think that the publicity department
was getting desperate at Paramount...

Joan:
 Arrrgh... you kidding?

 I feel like singing "Body of a Goddess"

 Holy Crap! I hope she doesn't keep
 that dog in there, it might die!

Look at dem' yamms!

Why the light bulbs, Joan?

Louise:
 Oh Louise... thank god you lost these before
you became a screaming drunk, oh wait, "ex" drunk

 Louise Brooks Exposed;
By day, a glamorous dancer,
by night, a circus clown

 I love the dress, and I NEED that hat!

 Those hips don't lie, and if they did, you'd know

Prairie bonnet and Dutch bob, hmmm... hate ta' say it Louise,
but that goes together like fish and peanut butter (aka not well)

  1. Apollo,
    I adore publicity stills and the more bizarre the better. Some of the props they used during early Hollywood press junkets are hilarious.
    Another great post and a beautiful photo of Clara.
