Fun facts about June Allyson: * Birth name: Eleanor Geisman * In 1945, Harvard Lampoon voted her worst actress of the year. That year's worst actor was regular co-star Van Johnson. * When she was eight years old, she was crushed by a falling tree limb while riding a bicycle. She wore a back brace for four years and taught herself to dance by watching Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers movies. She was told that the accident would prevent her from having children. Her first child, Pamela Powell, was adopted in 1948. In 1950, however, she gave normal birth to her son, Dick Powell Jr..

I'd imagine many of these may sell out before the festival.
