Some fun facts etc about Jeanie:

1
. She was one of the first famous people to wear a charm bracelet, made for her by a fan ( I believe.)

2. She dyed her pubic hair, too. Apparently, she would flash the press just to prove this fact, and even plucked out a curl or two for a few very lucky fans!

3. Was recently voted one of the greatest female stars in Hollywood history.

4. She was only 5"2! And her eyes were green.

5. She was the first film actresses to feature on the cover of LIFE magazine.

Quotes about Jean:

Clark Gable: "She didn't want to be famous. She wanted to be happy."
James Stewart: " When it came to kissing - Harlow was the best."
Spencer Tracy: " A square shooter if there ever was one."
Groucho Marx: " I'd have liked to have gone to bed with Jean Harlow. She was a beautiful broad. The fellow who married her was impotent and he killed himself. I would have done the same thing."

Here, you can find some of the best colorized photos of Jean I've ever seen, in the Victor Mascaro gallery
