Mozee (aka Annie Oakley). Famed for her marksmanship by 12 years old, she once
shot the ashes off of Kaiser Wilhelm II’s cigarette at his invitation. When she
outshot famed exhibition marksman, Frank Butler, he fell in love with her and
they married. They remained married for the rest of their lives.

They look good, great to know them.
Hey, how'd you get invited to a "cloud" conference. I'm the one everybody says has his head in the clouds! Sheesh!
We used to watch the Lucy Ball show and enjoyed seeing it every week.
Have a wonderful week.
We have real summer weather now.
Wil, ABCW Team.
Would not have recognised Lucille Ball.
An interesting look back. Lucille Ball was very pretty when she was young, that;s for sure!
wonderful vintage photos! I had never seen a photo of Billie Holiday, let alone a childhood one, but my momma had old 78 rpm records of hers- simply marvelous voice. Lucille Ball was a beauty.
I love vintage photos, Sylvia. The SF earthquake was so devastating! Hope that never happens again.
Remarkable pictures Sylvia! Lucy is absolutely my all time favorite. She was so beautiful.
