Happy Birthday Lupe!

Today would have been the 102nd birthday of Lupe Vélez!


Of course, Lupe only celebrated 36 birthdays during her lifetime so it’s important that she is remembered on this, her special day, and always.

Many of Lupe’s films are available and can be found via collectors on eBay. From drama to comedy, Lupe did it all. If you want a good laugh, start with the “Mexican Spitfire” series. You’ll be hooked!

Happy Birthday Lupe!!!!

Trigger is SOLD :(

Trigger, Roy Rogers’ famous horse was sold on July 14th…to a cable company, in Omaha, Nebraska! His final sale price was…$266,500!

Trigger Is Sold



In a secondary article, a little more is explained, with the company revealing that they hope to open a museum one day. They also had the winning bid for Bullet, Roy Rogers’ dog.

Bullet Sold Too


Poor ol’ Buttermilk, the horse of Rogers’ wife, Dale Evans, only reached $25,000. Less than a tenth Trigger’s price. No information about Buttermilk’s new owner has been released.


With 1,000 items going under the hammer, that’s the end of The Roy Rogers and Dale Evans Museum. Everything is now dispersed – forever. It’s the end of an era…but at least Trigger and Bullet get to share the same new home.

Happy Birthday, Olive Borden!

Today would have been Olive Borden’s 104th Birthday!


Unfortunately, Olive didn’t get to celebrate too many birthdays during her lifetime. She was an amazingly talented actress and a warm, generous, kind-hearted woman…taken way too soon.

~ Remember Her ~

“Happy Birthday” to Hollywood’s Joy Girl!
