Dear Mr. Gable, I'm writing this to you...
Just like Judy Garland, I fell in love with Clark Gable when I, too, realized that he was "the nicest fella in the movies." And I'm sure that Judy would also fall in love with Tom Tierney's brilliant homage to our hero, Clark Gable Paper Dolls in Full Color.

This is a gorgeous collection -- a tribute to Gable's career and the author's amazing talents. This book belongs in your collection.

Tom Tierney Paper Dolls
I was pleased to receive and have the Clark Gable Paper Dolls in Full Color.They were shipped and received in very quick order, arriving in perfect condition.My Tom Tierney collection is growing.

CLARK GABLE
THIS IS A STURDY LOOK AT A GRAET MOVIE ACTOR.A perfect companion to the joan crawford book, as both books include their film "possessed"."Gone with the wind" is also well covered.All three figures look like him, the second one is very impressive. With a welcome tribute to his love for Lombarde with their only film together.WELL DONE SIR. ... Read more

A serviceable book
Harris perpetuates a "great legend".But the comments by Jean Garceau, Lombard's secretary, are telling.

Helpful Biography
If you're looking for a detailed biography of the life of this Hollywood couple, this book is not for you. This is a short read that will give you an idea of what Gable & Lombard's relationship was like, and offers a brief glimpse into the lives of each. For an in-depth view into the two stars' lives, I recommend separate biographies for each, instead of this book which is only good for the merely interested reader.

What a disappointment!
I have ordered this book thinking it would be the perfect companion to the Gable & Lombard video (that great film directed by Sidney J. Furie, starring James Bronlin and Jill Clayburgh).
But...what a disappointment! The book has no life, I mean, no grace, no charm, Mr. Warren G. Harris seems unable to focus in the mood of the 1930s. Enjoy the movie, forget the book.

Avoid at all costs!
This is one of the worst books ever written in this or any other genre. It's an insult to Clark Gable and Carole Lombard, not a tribute to them. Avoid at all all costs!

This book is one of the best books ever!

Biography lite, but diverting
This bio of four big stars from Hollywood's golden age is fairly fun, but strictly lightweight; there is no annotation, for instance, and consequently the facts don't seem as unassailable as they should.It isthe kind of thing that would be an enjoyable beach read for the casualmovie (or gossip) fan--but not something for serious fans. ...
