Charlie Chan in Reno - Classic Movies




Classic Movies for Sunday is this Charlie Chan  film, "In Reno."  If you have never seen a Charlie Chan movie before, we recommend you take some time and check one out.  If you can get over the fact that it's in black and white and not color, they really are very enjoyable.  It's always fun to look at the fashions, cars, furniture, planes, boats and everything else from back in that time period.  If you pay attention to those facts, it makes the movie more interesting.

Betty - Sunday Comic Strip Vintage 1919



Betty - Sunday Funny Papers 1919 No 1 from Chuck Thompson

Our Sunday comic strip for the week is this vintage piece from 1919.  Betty was a short run strip that lasted about 3 months long and that was it.  It was over.  There are about 11 known strips.  We will try and get to more in the future with this one.  It's always interesting to look at what was considered funny back in earlier times and what was the sentiment of the day.  This gives you part of that picture. Enjoy.
