Stars and their Cars
Paulette Goddard, getting into her husband's (Charlie Chaplin) Rolls-Royce Phantom II, invites you to ride with the stars. Just to make things clear: today I didn't browse through dozens of web pages and my own archive folders to prepare this column. Instead, I simply borrowed the stuff from an awesome thread of the friendly forum. Let's go! For starters, some 20s glamour: Fatty Arbuckle and his 1919 Pierce Arrow Erich Von Stroheim and his Cadillac Harold Lloyd and wife Mildred Davis with their Buick Lincoln Theodore Monroe Andrew Perry aka Stepin Fetchit with his Cadillac Phaeton Joan Crawford with her 1929 Ford Town Car Babe Ruth receiving a 1926 Auburn Roadster as a gift And now - to 30s and 40s! Lilian Harvey and her Mercedes Johnny Weissmuller with his 1932 Chevrolet Clark Gable with his 1932 Packard Laurel and Hardy in their 1930 Series 30 Model 30-45 Buick Phaeton Joan Crawford (again) and her 1930 (or 1931) Cadillac Fleetwood Carl Brisson behind the wheel of his 1934 Isotta Fraschini Al Jolson with his Mercedes Jean Harlow with her Cadillac William Powell admires Gary Cooper's Duesy Buck Jones with his 1933 Packard Special Errol Flynn driving his Packard. ... and Auburn Roadster Tyrone Power with his Duesenberg... ... and post-war Jaguar Robert Montgomery with his Cadillac Sport Phaeton Joan Crawford (yes, again!) driving her 1933 Ford roadster James Stewart with his 1936 Plymouth Ginger Rogers and her 1937 Dodge Norwegian Olympic figure-skating champion, and Hollywood star Sonja Henie, posing with her Cord 810 Cecil B deMille with his 1937 Cord Rita Hayworth with her 1941 Lincoln Continental Bing Crosby giving rides around the studio lot in his 1939 Olds coupe convertible Cary Grant parked on the fender of his 1941 Buick Century And finally, some double-retro: John Wayne and Maureen O'Hara in a 1914 Stutz Bearcat
