Jack Webb and Jackie Loughery tie the knot on June 24th, 1958. Jackie is primarily known in beauty pageant circles (the kind Bill and Fox follow breathlessly) as the first Miss USA winner ever in 1952. Also, according to one of the most exemplary Wikipedia biographies I have ever read, she is also a woman. Really, treat yourself. Jack is primarily known for Dragnet of course.
In the photo above they appear to be celebrating their marriage but in reality they are celebrating Cinema Styles 300th banner, and who wouldn't? They're also celebrating Flickhead's Claude Chabrol Blogathon, the upcoming Ed Wood blogathon (no word yet on when the Ed Howard blogathon will take place) and I am assuming, the history of icing. Have a great holiday weekend everyone!*

Thanks for the link, and congratulations on your 300th banner!!!
I wish we could have a parade of some kind here on Cinema Styles. Maybe you should post every single one. Then we could all rank our favorites and you could calculate the results. FUN!

You don't get any pudding. Man, I hope I just won something.
Fox, you always said your favorite was the one for Boogie Nights. Click on the link to see them all which is also FUN!
Bill, you did win something. You get to have your own Wikipedia entry written by the person who wrote Jackie's. The first line of your entry? What else? "Bill is a man."
Congratulations!
I think we should all start our own Wikipedia pages. That would be sweet.
I did one for my cat about three years ago and it got deleted in less than two hours. It was all about how she had successfully navigated the solar system in a spaceship of her own construct. It was like a test run for the Invisible Edge. Those Wikipedia losers don't know what they lost when they deleted that gem.
What the hell happened between 1952 and 1958?
Lots of forgettable tv appearances I guess. I know she's a woman, the Wikipedia entry told me so.
Also, I wish I had a good pic of Webb marrying Julie London instead.
"she is also a woman", which is a disappointment for those who were hoping to watch Drag Net.
That would be a drag wouldn't it?
You should do a movie of all your banners to "Classical Gas." How awesome would that be?!
Anyway, congratulations. You are the Banner King!

I do have my own Wikipedia page, under my alias "John Kenneth Muir."
A Classical Gas Banner montage? That would be swoon-inducing awesome! As a backup I'll make a Music Box Dancer montage too.

Your Wikipedia entry demonstrates an amazing research effort without coming off as too academic. I salute you.
Why is pudding so fun? Why is hair so funny? How can you have 300 banners already when I haven't even gotten 500 posts up? Why don't I have a Wikipedia page? You'd think that after you link to them a certain number of times, they'd give you one free, completely filled out with interesting information about crossing the Delaware and being a 4-H champion.
Why is pudding so fun?
It's the texture. It's all in the texture.
Why is hair so funny?
Mine tells jokes.
How can you have 300 banners already when I haven't even gotten 500 posts up?
I should have many more but I didn't start putting a new one up with each post until about half a year into blogging. I'm currently at 482 posts but actually have done well over 500, it's just that I've deleted at least 30 or so posts from the first year of blogging that I found especially bad.
Why don't I have a Wikipedia page?
I'll get to work on one for you.
The Wiki entry on Jacqueline 'Jackie' Loughery-Avery-Mitchell-Webb-Switzer (or Schwitzer), a woman, also informs us that she had a "prize package" and once played "the Drill Instructor".
I think I'm most impressed by this setup:
Loughery also had non-recurring roles in numerous television programs through the 1950s and 1960s,
Numerous. Ah, so she must have been in Perry Mason, Wagon Train, Bonanza and so on, and in fact she was. And yet this is our payoff:
including the syndicated western 26 Men in the episode "Runaway Stage".
Uh... okay.
