There are a number of clips of Lake on news reels and shows and while i find a way to include them in the site I’m dropping them in here as I find them.
U.S. News Review "SAFETY STYLES"
"Before the war, Veronica Lake’s one-eyed hairdo established a style that swept the feminine face of the country... Not bad on a dance floor perhaps, but this Lake’s eye view is entirely out of place in a war production plant."
"This WWII newsreel features several wonderful segments. First, actress Veronica Lake is shown getting her famous hairstyle reconfigured in such a way that it would be safe, should she take on the kind of job that many "Rosie the Riveter" female workers took during the war."
