INSPIRATION: L.A. Times - Obituary

  
New Articles

From the Archives: Veronica Lake, Peek-a-Boo Star of the ‘40s, Dies at 51.

Something a little different here... The Los Angeles Times has some of it’s older achieves published to the web, something I wish more publishers would do, and so we have the archived Obituary for Veronica Lake by Dorothy Townsend a staff writer for The Times from back in July 8th of 1973 (12 AM PT).

"Veronica Lake, whose over-the-eye blonde tresses and fragile-tough girl looks made her a major box office attraction and pinup girl of World War II years, died Saturday in a Vermont hospital. She was 51."
