I've got to say, Jackie had several of those - not the more outrageous ones but the teased out styles, definitely.

Was this a "spot the celebrity" thing, because I definitely saw a few in there. No wonder Elvis wanted Priscilla. Just his type.

Only persons of a certain age could play "spot the celebs." Priscilla really rocked the bouffant hair.

Are we sure that brunet in the middle of the pack was not Amy Winehouse?

As for celebs, I saw Dolly, Brigitte Bardo, Hayley Mills, and Barbara Eden. I don't suppose Jo and Jan of "I'll Never Be Lonely" fame qualify as celebrities.

Considering what constitutes a celebrity today, I think Jo and Jan would qualify for spots on DANCING WITH THE STARS.

Deb's right - that does look like Amy Winehouse.

Jackie's comments on some of the others - like the middle one of the three about to race - "do you know how much hair spray you'd need to keep that in place?"

I like the one where it's obvious a significant other has been torn out of the photograph. There's a whole story in that raggedy tear.

I thought of my mother when I saw that one. In her later years she took to cutting herself out of pictures because she didn't like the way she looked. As I get older, I can understand the feeling.

Both of my siblings have been divorced (acrimoniously) and once when I was visiting my parents I noticed that all traces of ex-b-i-l and ex-s-i-l had been carefully excised from the big family photos and replaced, not very elegantly, with pictures of trees and shrubs. It's now a joke between me and my husband when we have a "disagreement," that I will warn him, "Watch out--unless you want to be nothing but a picture of an elm on my parents' mantle."
