To continue my busy and HOT weekend......
Day 2 Saturday.
I started to day with attending an event honoring the 75th Anniversary Of Republic Motion Pictures.
Attending and getting autographs from were:

Theodore Bikel
Adrian Booth
Michael Chapin
Ben Cooper
Robert Easton
Coleen Gray
Eilene Janssen
Anne Jeffreys
Dickie Jones
Jane Kean
Joan Leslie
Marjorie Lord
Jimmy Lydon
Donna Martell
Hugh O'Brian
Peggy Stewart
Jane Withers
Diana Canova
Ty Hardin
Herb Jeffries
Gregg Palmer
Andrew Prine
William Smith
Steven Williams
Doris Singleton
Johnny Crawford
and making a surprise, low key apperance Robert Blake.

EMCEE:
Leonard Maltin

This event was awesome! To see all these legendary cowboys stars from the classic era of the westerns was a treat!
And though Blake was a surprise I did happen to have an item for him to sign. I originally brought my Little Rascal book for author/tv personality Leonard Maltin to sign but it was lucky that I had it for Robert Blake to also sign it. He was know as Mickey Gubitosi in his Rascal ( Our Gang ) day's. As an extra bonus, since the event was held on the CBS Studio lot I also took my own "private" tour of the studio. So far the day was working out good.
That night I also attended the opening night of Phantom of the Opera over at the Pantages Theatre in Hollywood.
Guest list for the opening were:
Alley Mills, Anne Jeffrey's, Brando Eaton, Donna Mills, John McCook, John Sussman, Kat Linder, Greg Louganis, Marselia Lusha, Priscilla Presley, Rex Lee, Roma Dames, Earl Holliman, Rosanna Pansino, Dick Gautier, and Iqbal Theba from Glee.
It was another full day but I got quite a lot of signatures.

You better hurry! When I saw Joan she was very feeble, had a hard time hearing, and could barely sign for me.
