Celeb relief party

If someone else wants to tackle the other guests at the party on pg. 16, be my guest. You could win a free tour of the Perisphere! DrJohnnyDiablo (talk) 11:20, April 26, 2014 (UTC)

Now with pic. I'm horrible at 40s celebs. Maybe Niven en profile? And the small one with the equally sized girl in the center - Mickey Rooney? --Tupka217 13:52, April 26, 2014 (UTC)
AFAIKT...
From the top, going left to right:
(top)Humphrey Bogart, David Niven (I think Tupka is right...), Bud Abbot, Lou Costello, Clark Gable, <no clue>, Jimmy Durante
(next row) <no clue>, <no clue>, George Burns, Gracie Allen, Jack Benny?
(next row) <no clue>, Ronald Regan, <no clue>, <no clue>
(bottom) Bob Hope, Lucille Ball, Ricky Ricardo?

As for Mickey Rooney... that may be the person between Gable and Durante. - Byfield (talk) 14:32, April 26, 2014 (UTC)
The blond guy (third head from top or bottom = middle row, left side) could be James Cagney. --Lucien61 (talk) 16:09, April 26, 2014 (UTC)
Might be... - Byfield (talk) 16:28, April 26, 2014 (UTC)
Normally I'd check the letters column of the series two, three issues down the line for the results, but this series stops at 67. --Tupka217 16:36, April 26, 2014 (UTC)
That may not be a hindrance. Thomas often provided background info in the specific issue´s letter cols. I do not have #66 myself, but the LOC page might be worth a look. --Lucien61 (talk) 21:21, April 26, 2014 (UTC)
Since there's a competition involved, I doubt it's in the same issue. --Tupka217 21:23, April 26, 2014 (UTC)
The LOC of this issue is no help in this case. I think Niven, Abbott & Costello, Burns & Allen, Benny and Lucy & Desi are correct. DrJohnnyDiablo (talk) 13:01, April 27, 2014 (UTC)
