EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from 1939, Hollywood legend Mickey Rooney is seen having his buttonhole expertly arranged by the graceful and elegant hand of Lilian Long. The black-and-white image transports us back to the golden age of cinema, a time when glamour and glitz reigned supreme in Tinseltown. Mickey Rooney, born Joseph Yule, Jr. in 1920, was a renowned American actor, comedian, and producer, who began his career as a child actor in the late 1920s. By the 1930s, he had already established himself as a popular and versatile performer, gracing the silver screen in a variety of roles that showcased his immense talent. Lilian Long, on the other hand, was a well-known society figure and socialite, who was often called upon to assist Hollywood's biggest stars with their pre-award show preparations. Her expertise in the art of buttonhole design was legendary, and she was a fixture at the Academy Awards and other high-profile events. In this photograph, Mickey Rooney, dressed in a sharp tuxedo, stands confidently as Lilian Long delicately adjusts the flower in his buttonhole. The expression on his face is one of calm concentration, while Lilian's focused gaze suggests the importance she places on her work. The image is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail that was expected of Hollywood's elite during this era. The year was 1939, a time when the film industry was at the height of its creative output, producing classics such as "Gone with the Wind," "The Wizard of Oz," and "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington." This photograph captures a moment of quiet preparation before the glamour and excitement of the awards season, a reminder of a bygone era when Hollywood was at its most magical.
