Engraving in the Movies
I just happened to look up at a short feature on Turner Classic Movies about Beulah Bondi (who played George Bailey's mother in "It's a Wonderful Life"), and caught this scene of the 1939 Lionel Barrymore movie - " On Borrowed Time".
Anyway, I haven't seen the movie, but would watch it now, just to catch a scene with Barrymore doing some engraving! |

That is nice. They did take the trouble of getting an engravers vice on the set. Would be cool to see if he indeed scratched something.

Thanks JJ,
Why I enjoy those "facts that will never get me anywhere" is a mystery to me - but I have been called Cliff Clavin by my friends. Gordon |
