Anonymous asked: You have posted a few scans of caricatures in Bob Harman's book "Hollywood Panorama," which are wonderful, thank you. I understand that a caricature of actress Agnes Moorehead is included in this book. If you ever have the time, would you consider scanning and posting her caricature? Thank you.

Well…. I’m a firm believer in Moorehead, so ok. It’ll be my pleasure! :)

(so sad that i think that’s funny)

But.. yeah, sure.. No problem. You’ll understand though if it takes me a bit. Have to find the book, take the pic, and fit it in to the rotation that I’m working on for the next batch of Hollywood posts… But I will. I promise. Got that book a million years ago on Hollywood Blvd. Nice to give Mr. Harman a 21st century reboot. ha. Oh, and thank you for checking out my little Hollywood-picture-bloggy-thingy. My fans on this particular blog are just “we happy few”. Thanks again! Keep checking here for the pic!
