Another Saturday, another installment from the Good Time Weekly Calendar of 1963. The model above resisted all attempts at identification, and the photographer is listed as anonymous, but fret not—the daily quotations are faithfully transcribed below. This time, women are the targets of the assorted quipsters. We know this type of humor was considered good fun back then, but really, isn't it a little twisted to bash women while looking at their naked bodies for sexual gratification? Just asking. Still no clue on the He-who Who-he reference, by the way. Anyone with info please feel free to drop us a line.
March 24: “In most of our Hollywood beauty shops the gossip alone would curl your hair.”—Pat Buttram
March 25: “One picture is worth 10,000 words—but for some reason most women prefer to use 10,000 words.”—George Gobel
March 26: No one can tell her anything—she’s got sound proof ears.
March 27: “In many conversations a man can’t break in because a woman won’t break off.”’—Telly Savalas
March 28: You never know how much the voice can change till a woman stops yelling and answers the phone.
March 29: “A woman doesn’t tell the truth all the time—there just isn’t that much truth.”—He-who Who-he
March 30: “The best way to tie a woman down is with a telephone cord.”—Paul Gibson.

Spanish promo poster for Silvio Narizzano’s Italian heist flick Senza ragione, 1973. The title would translate to something like “without reason”, which sounds okay to us, but it was instead released in the U.S. as Alias Redneck, a change that makes sense only when you see Telly Savalas chewing the scenery as a psycho named Memphis. If the film were as good as the poster we’d really have something, but no such luck. It’s probably worth a look for avid fans of poliziesco flicks, but proceed at your own risk.
