JConthecover: Coleccao Cinema (1956)


As Joan is currently in the UK, perhaps she would have seen that Land of The Pharoahs was shown on BBC2 today. Made in 1954, the film featured Jack Hawkins, and Sydney Chaplin.

Today's magazine is from Portugal and features Joan as Princess Nellifer and Jack Hawkins as the Pharoah on the cover and inside a 5 page adaptation of the film.

Visit my website for more photographs from the film.

Past In Photos: Joan With Celebrities


This is a new section on my blog, and features pictures of Joan with celebrities, starting with this one of her with Susan Sangster. Not sure of the exact date or venue.

JConthecover: Detroit Free Press (1991)


This American magazine from 1991 was one of many covers around at the time to promote the Dynasty Reunion special which tied up all the loose ends from the original series. I have more covers in the archives, and will also be looking at the 25th Anniversary special "Catfights and Caviar" in future posts.

JConthecover: Sunday Mirror Magazine (1991)


Today's magazine from the archives of my collection is The Sunday Mirror Magazine, dated 8th September 1991. It is a great cover and inside a 3 page article to celebrate the return of Dynasty which at that time had been off the air for 2 years.
Fans were finally to be treated to a Reunion which would "tie up all the loose ends" when the series had ended. What had happened to Blake? .... Where was Krystle? and what had become of Alexis last seen plunging off the balcony at the Carlton Hotel with Dex, watched in horror by Sable, Monica and Adam?
The article, called "Joan Gets A Dressing Down" featured 7 pictures of Joan and some of the fabulous creations, courtesy of Nolan Miller that she would wear during the 4 hour 2 part mini-series.
