My fave has got to be Lucy. William Shatner looks a little bit like Jack Palance in that photo. Mae West was very pretty when she was young, and probably knew it. Clark Gable is such a little cutie. I have a picture of my grandfather when he was about 3 years old. He has super long hair in long sausage curls. Poor guy.
