Lawrence James DeVol - One of the Depression's Most Wanted (and most vicious).

Lawrence ‘Larry the Chopper’ DeVol is less well-known than, say ‘Pretty Boy’ Floyd or ‘Baby Face’ Nelson, but was no less violent or vicious. Absolutely cold-blooded and criminally-minded, DeVol murdered at least eleven people, probably more. Not content with the murders of at least five citizenss, he murdered at least six law enforcement officers in Iowa, Missouri, Kansas and Oklahoma. Any of…

THE BARKER GANG ROB A FEDERAL RESERVE MAIL TRUCK AND KILL A POLICE OFFICER WHILE GETTING AWAY WITH NO MONEY.

August 22, 1933

Image: Ma Barker (Wikimedia Commons)

The infamous Barker gang holds up a Federal Reserve mail truck in Chicago, Illinois, and kills a police officer. After obtaining only a stack of worthless checks, the Barkers returned to a crime with which they had more success—kidnapping. A few months later, the Barkers kidnapped wealthy banker Edward Bremer, demanding $200,000 in ransom.

After Kate Clark married George Barker in 1892, she gave birth to four boys: Herman, Lloyd, Arthur, and Freddie. As Kate became known, Ma Barker was presumably responsible for discipline in the family, but she let her sons run wild. She defended her boys no matter what they did, saying, "If the good people of this town don't like my boys, then the good people know what they can do." All the Barker boys became involved in crime during their childhood: In 1922, Lloyd robbed a post office and received a 25-year sentence in federal prison; that same year, Arthur "Doc" Barker got a life sentence in Oklahoma for killing a night watchman, though later it would turn out that he was innocent; Freddie was next to see the insides of a holding cell after robbing a bank. While serving time in Kansas, Herman committed suicide during a heated gunfight with police after robbing a bank in Missouri.

Herman's death inspired Ma Barker to pressure authorities to release her other sons, and Doc and Freddie were subsequently set free. Although Ma Barker is seen as the gang's mastermind, historians doubt this. Whether she was behind the gang's nefarious deeds or not, the Barkers were at the center of the Midwest's growing criminal community. When they tired of bank robberies, the Barkers began kidnapping.

Their first victim, William Hamm, earned the gang $100,000 in ransom. Although the Bremer abduction in 1933 produced twice as much, it brought them a lot of heat from federal authorities. With the FBI on their trail, Doc and Freddie attempted plastic surgery. But this half-baked idea left them with disfiguring scars, and Doc was captured in early 1935.

Doc, who was later killed while attempting to escape from Alcatraz in 1939, refused to talk to authorities, but police found papers in his hideout that led them to Ma and Freddie on Lake Weir, Florida. After a ferocious shootout lasting 45 minutes, the Barkers lay dead from the firefight, machine guns still at their sides.

Twelve years later, Lloyd Barker was finally paroled. He, too, met a violent end, but not at the hands of the police—his wife shot him dead in 1949. Father George Barker, who was never part of the Barker gang, was the family's sole survivor.

Ziegfeld Follies - Filmes Online Fácil

O falecido grande empresário Florenz Ziegfeld olha dos céus e ordena um novo espetáculo em seu antigo grande estilo. No céu, Florenz Ziegfeld Jr. showman carinhosamente recorda seu primeiro musical da Broadway, o Ziegfeld Follies de 1907. Mesmo do céu, ele acha que pode, por uma última vez, criar essa mesma magia com a montagem de uma de suas últimas loucuras. Assim como ele pensa sobre quem ele gostaria de aparecer nessas loucuras, ele é auxiliado na realização de sua fantasia, pelo menos em sua própria mente, por luminares como Fred Astaire, Edward Arnold, "Lucille Ball ', Marion Bell, Lucille Bremer, Fanny Brice, Cyd Charisse, Judy Garland, Kathryn Grayson, Lena Horne, Gene Kelly, James Melton, Victor Moore, Virginia O'Brien, Red Skelton, Esther Williams, Keenan Wynn, e, é claro, um bando de garotas bonitas.

When the Barker-Karpis Gang kidnapped and ransomed Minnesota banker Edward Bremer for $200,000, Dr. Moran helped launder the money through his practice in Chicago. Six months later, while drinking with the gang in a club just outside Toledo, Ohio, Moran drunkenly bragged about the power he now held over the gang, knowing the incriminating details about their crime, saying, "I have you guys in the palm of my hand." It is this assertion that is believed to have sealed his fate, death! https://www.instagram.com/p/CgUzWaQF7by/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

ANNA SIMONS

Today we present a few pages from a new acquisition, Titel und Initialen für die Bremer Presse, a specimen book of the titling and initials produced by the German calligrapher and type designer Anna Simons (1871–1951) for Willy Wiegand’s Bremer Presse, printed letterpress in Munich at the Bremer Presse in an edition of 220 copies in 1926. A student of the renowned British calligrapher and type designer Edward Johnston, Simons taught Johnstonian design concepts at the Kunstgewerbeschule in Dusseldorf and later at Munich under the direction of German architect and type designer Peter Behrens. She began doing design work for the Bremer Presse beginning in 1918, and along with her assistant Franziska Kobell, Simons designed some 1400 titles and initials for the Presse. Simons continued to teach and work in Germany through the Nazi regime and died at 80 in Prien, Germany.

‘FOLLIES’ TRIVIA

Sidney Guilaroff, Lucille Ball’s hair dresser, who takes responsibility for her famous ‘golden red’ for this movie, becoming her trademark color.

Although they appear in different segments, this is the only feature film collaboration between “I Love Lucy co-stars" Lucille Ball and William Frawley. Coincidently, Frawley's character in this film shares a striking similarity with his iconic character of Fred Mertz on “I Love Lucy.” In this film he plays a money-hungry curmudgeon of a landlord, much like the show. In the above photo, he appears with director Minnelli and co-star Brice. 

The horse ridden by Lucille Ball is the Lone Ranger's Silver!

Lucille Ball was actually fired by Ziegfeld from his road company production of Rio Rita in the 1930s.

In February 1956, Lucy and Desi appeared on “MGM Parade” to promote their MGM film Forever Darling. The show also included footage of Lena Horne singing from Ziegfeld Follies. 

Lucy also played a showgirl in pink in “Lucy Gets Into Pictures” (ILL S4;E19) aired on February 21, 1955. The scene was inspired by Ziegfeld’s legendary stage shows featuring beautiful women wearing elaborate costumes navigating long staircases. To solidify the comparison, Ricky says he is going to a meeting with Mr. Minnelli. Vincente Minnelli was one of the directors of Ziegfeld Follies. 

Lucy Ricardo had previously cavorted around in a lampshade in the manner of a Ziegfeld girl in both the unaired pilot and “The Audition” (S1;E6).

Ziegfeld Follies includes a sketch for Red Skelton called “When Television Comes” aka “Guzzler’s Gin” in which a (future) television spokesman gets increasingly sloshed on his product. This sketch was an obvious influence on Lucy’s Vitameatavegamin routine in “Lucy Does a TV Commercial” (ILL S1;E30) aired on May 5, 1952. 

Ziegfeld Girl Eve Whitney appeared on “I Love Lucy” episode “The Charm School” (ILL S3;E15). She used her own name for the character.  

The Telegraph Boy in "A Sweepstakes Ticket" Arthur Walsh - appeared on “I Love Lucy” in “Lucy Has Her Eyes Examined” (ILL S3;E11) as Arthur ‘King Cat’ Walsh. He teaches Lucy how to jitterbug. 

The first Judge in the “Pay the Two Dollars” James Crehan also played the Police Detective on “I Love Lucy in “The Great Train Robbery” (ILL S5;E5) first aired on October 31, 1955.

Porky, a voice on the telephone in “Number Please” Peter Lawford, played “Password” against Lucille Ball on September 24, 1964.  At the time, Lawford was married to President Kennedy’s sister, Patricia. On November 26, 1968, Ball was a guest on “The Tonight Show” when Peter Lawford was sitting in for Johnny Carson.

Chorus Boy Bert May appeared as a solo dancer on “The Lucy Show” in “Lucy and Tennessee Ernie Ford” (TLS S5;E21) in February 1967. 

In the dressing room, Lucy jokes with Fanny Brice, one of the funniest women in showbusiness.  This was the only time Ball and Brice collaborated and was Brice’s last film. 

Ziegfeld’s follies began on Broadway, so it was appropriate that the show featured past and future Broadway musical stars:

Lucille Ball ~ Wildcat (1960)

Carol Haney ~ The Pajama Game (1954)

Tommy Rall ~ Call Me Madame (1950)

Fanny Brice ~ The Ziegfeld Follies 

Marion Bell ~ Brigadoon (1947)

Victor Moore ~ Anything Goes (1934)

There was a lot of material that was not filmed, but written and cast. Some of the original skits would have added “Lucy” performers Mickey Rooney, Ann Sothern, and Van Johnson to the cast.
