Joan Blondell & Tallulah Bankhead in the stage production of James Leo Herlihy's Crazy October 📷 Friedman-Abeles, 1958 NYPL digital collection I can imagine that Joan & Tallulah each worked hard to keep the audience focussed on Joan or Tallulah.

The two try to one-up each other as they, for some reason, carry a ladder up a flight of stairs.

I know Joan Blondell best as one of the four sexy librarians in Walter Lang's Desk Set, 1957 The others are Dina Merrill, Sue Randall & Katherine Hepburn

The four librarians in front of the huge IBM computer.
