Today’s Top 5

Boss

Those shoes and stockings are the bee's knees!

Legs

I'm not sure what's on her backside, but those things on her stockings were referred to as 'clocks'. And it's a testimony to how expensive silk stockings were that an actress of her caliber has a run in hers on the uncrossed leg.

Oooh!

Are those shoes available in size 6?

Push My Buttons

I love the old push button light switches!

On another note, what in the devil is hanging off her backside?

Peggy's story

Her story is quite a remarkable one, as related in this article and the comments attached to it.
