Ginger Stuff going on!!!

...well, there are a few things afoot for Gingerologists...

FIRST, we have the OFFICIAL opening of The Ginger House Museum in Independence on Tuesday, August 21, 2018... The City of Independence Chamber of Commerce will attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony, and hopefully more press on local TV...  HERE is the info:

Official Opening of the Ginger House Museum

...CONGRATS to Marge and Gene as they see their vision for the place come to fruition!  Again, I am SO glad that this whole series of events happened, as there was a time where nobody really knew who would own the house, and it was in disrepair, etc... SO awesome it will now be kept up and available for public viewing! GO CHECK IT OUT!!!  ...AAAAAND, GingerFest 2019 is already shaping up, with ballroom dancing in the mix! ...don't worry, I've already told Marge I am to be relegated to a judge, or observer, or some other non-dancing role... keep up to date on The Ginger House Museum website as well as on FaceBook!

Another bit of Gingery news is ANOTHER GingerFilm has been released on DVD...this time it's 'Honor Among Lovers', which of course is part of the Paramount Pentateuch (i.e., first five movies Ginger appeared in, all under Paramount)! Now, as to Ginger's role in this one.... WEEEEELLLLL.... it's really not too much... she is cute in the few scenes she appears in, but mainly for comic relief in a pretty intense plot... the film in general is a pretty good early 30's drama, starring Claudette Colbert and Fredric March... worth checking out. HERE is the link for a purchase point for this one (Amazon is about the only place I could find):

Honor Among Lovers DVD

...I haven't opened up my copy yet, but from general info from other Gingerologists, the copy is a LOT better and sharper than the fuzzy one capped from the 'copy' from the 'ether', as seen above...

...the cool thing about this is there is hope that the rest of the 'Pentateuch' might follow in DVD format, now that this one has been released... ALL of them 'exist', but need cleaning up (strangely enough, the one that is the best copy 'floating around' out there of the five is Young Man of Manhattan, Ginger's FIRST 'feature film', and arguably her best role in any of the five...)

...and in another bit of 'HueyNews' (don't worry, it is ultimately Gingery), I am moving lots of furniture around, swapping up my 'work area' (I do plan review, so I need space to unfurl blueprints, look at big-screen monitors, etc.), and with that, it may well free up some wall space for Gingery Features... NOW, of course I have 2-3 'projects' which began WAAAAY in the past, but are yet to be reality (most notably the LIFE magazine covers to be framed), but... who knows, maybe some stuff will get completed - I REALLY need a 'GingerWall' or two...

AND... that's all I got. For now...

Until then...

KIG, Y'all!!!
