I love this cover from Ebony magazine featuring Sammy Davis Jr. It's the March 1980 issue. Sammy looks so happy here. Plus check out those threads. Sammy always had such cool style. He's definitely one cool cat.
P.S. I was honored with the I Love Your Blog Award by the wonderful blog Janettteria. I appreciate it so very much. I had a hard time picking which blogs to bestow this award on. I love all your blogs. I'm giving this award to anybody who wants it. You all deserve it.


A cover of a magazine is usually what attracts me to a particular issue. When I'm in the supermarket checkout, I might buy a magazine based on who or what is on the cover. Sometimes the contents are good and sometimes they aren't. I'm usually still satisfied with my purchase if I'm a big fan of the cover. I really love seeing vintage magazine covers. They really knew how to make an amazing cover back then. They did so much well in those days. I could spend so much time checking out classic covers online. I so totally am in awe of this GQ cover. I'm a huge Sammy Davis Jr. fan. He's one of the coolest cats of all time. The image of Sammy on this cover oozes so much coolness. I wish I just had an inch of his coolness. I hope you like it too.
P.S. Check out my latest post at Celluloid Slammer. It's a clip of Sammy Davis Jr. singing Mr. Bojangles. It's a different clip than the one I posted up here in the past. Plus you gotta see what Sammy is wearing. I hope you will check out my post and leave some comments there. Thanks.
I absolutely love this Cosmopolitan magazine cover featuring Jackie Gleason. I'm a big fan of the legendary entertainer. I remember that I watched reruns of The Jackie Gleason Show when I was a kid. That variety show was actually one of the things that helped get me interested in the things that I love to this day. I've watched Jackie in everything from The Hustler to the Smokey and the Bandit trilogy to The Toy. Jackie was a good pallie of the Rat Pack, especially with Frank Sinatra. I hope you like this cover too. The look on Jackie's face is priceless.
I've never come across this issue, but this is the December 26, 1967 issue of Look magazine. It's the Christmas issue for the year. It features Dean Martin on the cover. It says he talks about the Mafia, women, his drinking, Sinatra & Bobby Kennedy. I'm sure it was a really cool article. I love the pictures of Dino up here. Cheers!

P.S. Happy Birthday to Frank Sinatra! I definitely had to make sure I mentioned that. I poured myself a drink and listened to some Frankie tunes. There's nobody quite like the Chairman of the Board. He's a true legend that I love and admire greatly. I'm sure he's celebrating his birthday with his pallies at that big casino in the sky. Cheers!
