Next week, on October 6, will be the 100th anniversary of the birth of screen great Carole Lombard, one of my all-time favorite performers. Her hometown paper, the Ft. Wayne News-Sentinel, makes mention of the upcoming anniversary.
As everybody knows, on January 16, 1942, Lombard was killed, along with her mother and 20 other people, in a plane crash at Mt. Potosi just outside Las Vegas. I found this interesting little report about Goodsprings, Nevada, and the Lombard accident.
