I just got my Costumer's Guild West newsletter, and found something you loungers may be interested in. Here's what it says...

"Turner Classic Movie Channel has opened up a "test" shop at the Grove shopping mall (at Third and Fairfax in Los Angeles), complete with some costumes from classic movies. While they don't have a lot on display, they do have Humphrey Bogart's suit and Ingrid Bergman's outfit from Casablanca (as well as Sam's piano and some other furniture/furnishings from the set), Katharine Hepburn's robe from Adam's Rib, Judy Garland's red dress from A Star Is Born, Elizabeth Taylor's blue dress from Giant, and Clark Gable's tan suit from Band of Angels. They also have some vintage accessories for sale (hair nets, hair pins, purses, etc.) for sale as well as some real and reproduction jewelry.

The store is only temporary and will disappear after Christmas. Hours are Monday through Thursday, 10am-9pm, Friday and Saturday, 10am-11pm and Sunday 11am -7pm."

I haven't been yet (I'm afraid it would be serious danger to my pocketbook), but I'd love to hear back from anyone who has!

Yeah, I have heard of this shop. I would like to check it out. Just need to find a good time to do it.

I sure would like to see some of the real stuff from the movies.
To bad it's going to close after Christmas.

I also heard that there is a place that is selling off a lot of stuff out of the studios. Heard there is some vintage and good repops from Seabiscuit for sell. But, like one would guess, it's all in a high price range.

I'll find out more on that for those who may want to know more.

Root.

AAAARRRGHH!!! After living in Los Angeles for thirty years! Say, if anyone should get by there and get pictures of Bogie's suit from Casablanca I'd be most appreciative if you'd post them here or PM me so's I can get a look at them.
