Lucille Ball Falls In Love With Encyclopaedia!

When I was a kid Lucy was hawking something called Pivot Golf. It was a game that was a piece of junk, but I had to have it. Of course I did if Lucy was advertising it! You can read all about my childhood including my Lucy obsession in my book "The Little Grownup." 

Here are a few ads Lucy was in...This one was was probably from the 80s and features Lucy in a drawing for Detroit's famous J.L.Hudson's Department Store optical department! I wonder if they got her endorsement for these. There was a whole series featuring celebrity drawings.

 Here's a fun one I cut out of a magazine. Did you know Lucy fell in love with an encylopaedia? I wonder if Gary knew at the time....
