leenorman Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 I wonder if anyone is ever going to buy this necklace/ring combo that has been on eBay for years. $99,000 is a bit steep! ANYONE know what Telethon and what YEAR this took place? Month and Day would be wonderful, as well Thanks if you can come up with it. JK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leenorman Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 I remember in the Lucy book by Tim Frew showed several pictures of Lucy at charity events. Remember the great pics of her at the SHARE parties. Lucy was very generous more than she let on unlike today when it is a big event for a star to give to a charity. Will: Care to SHARE, from this book, those dates of charitable giving by Lucille; Months, Days, and Years; if you can. I feel Lucille's giving of her time to these sorts of things are just as valuable information as her very long and successful career in all things And...you should excuse the pun.... Fondly, JK.

Maybe you could try googling SHARE, it was a charity after all, so they should have everything listed clearly, we never seem to get any of these dates when we see pics of Lucy at these various events.

Luvsbway Posted September 29, 2013 Report Share Posted September 29, 2013 I don't know anything about the telethon. Here is a charity related pic I do have some info on. When actress Lucille Ball, appearing on the City of Hope Telethon, appealed to viewers to contribute a dime a piece to a free national medical center, seven-year-old Bobby Cohen dutifully saved ten cents out of his allowance. But Bobby wouldn't trust the post office to deliver his contribution. He appeared at the door of the studio in which Lucy was filming her TV show and insisted on making his contribution to the star, herself.October 27, 1953 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luvsbway Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 I think this is the same event as those color shots I posted earlier. I should ha able to find that info tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annaleigh Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 I think this is the same event as those color shots I posted earlier. I should ha able to find that info tonight.That cannot be that purple dress. Does she have a black one exactly like that? Plus if you are referring to the ones posted in the last week this is certainly not the same event. Notice the brooch and she has false eyelashes in this new photo.

Luvsbway Posted October 3, 2013 Report Share Posted October 3, 2013 Oh your right with the lashes. I think I have one more that is like this BW one and I think there are pants under it. I'll dig it up. High neck dress with ruffles was throwing me off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luvsbway Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 The caption for the purple dress says: May 87, Red Buttons, Frier's Club Roast Waldorf Hotel. Here is are 2 more from it. A better version. This is the event: Gary Morton, Lucille Ball, Milton Berle, Red Buttons, Angie Dickinson at Friars Roast September 1984 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil Posted October 4, 2013 Report Share Posted October 4, 2013 The stars of CBS's 9-10 hour for 1953-54 30 years later. Red got the plush time zone after I Love Lucy in its 2nd year, 1953. Came in at #12 but was cancelled by CBS at the end of the season. The time slot was given to Desilu's December Bride the next season. Lucy can be seen doing the Red Buttons dance to punctuate a joke in "Changing the Boy's Wardrobe". I've only seen this imitation. I've never seen Red do it but it was enough of a trademark that 1953 audience's recognized it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
