Your photos give me a warm and fuzzy feeling! I like them all. The first image is soft with a great complexion on the woman. Who is she and the movie?

Judy Garland, as Esther in "Meet Me in St. Louis," the scene where she sings "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" to "Tootie" (Margaret O'Brien).

At first I lifted all of the images from the internet and played them through my over the air converter/media player. Then when I went back to broadcast reception, one of the local subchannels was playing the same movie! And, the picture looked better than what I had grabbed from the internet, so I quickly took some more shots and selected these two.

My wife guessed Judy Garland. I’m going to find that movie. Well done.

"Meet Me in St. Louis, Louis" meshes with another interest of mine, world's fairs. As far as I know, it was the only song associated with a fair that attained any lasting popularity (and in my opinion, the only one that deserved any).

Most people have only heard the chorus, as sung in the movie, and do not know that it had seven humorous verses, and the chorus was modified to be a punchline for verses three through six.

Another factoid is that the verses and choruses are all in limerick form.

Here is an acoustic phonograph presentation of three verses and the following choruses:

If you don't mind a working table model CTC5 with a later glass jug or a weak 21AXP and a bit of fotofinish flaking (and I get my other CTC5 going by spring), and you can get someone to pony Express it to you from the ETF or come n git it there I'd give give you the dirt cheap friends and family price (and I don't mean the redheaded step-4th cousin with 15 toes twice removed and regrowed price ).
