Though it's not as well known as the one in Hollywood, Canada has a Walk of Fame celebrating the many talented Canadians involved in film, television and music. I've taken many photos of the inductee stars in Toronto but as this is a vintage forum I'll only post a couple of the relevant ones for anyone who may be interested.

Fay Wray's star on King St. W., Toronto

Mary Pickford's star on Simcoe St., Toronto

Thanks Violet, these are really nice and quite subtle. I wish the UK celebrated the stars we've produced in the same way. I know they have tried to start a Grauman's thing at Leicester Square, but there is nothing really to celebrate the stars from the classic era, other than the little Charlie Chaplin statue.

Mrs V.: Thanks to those that left goodbye messages and to Endo who kindly offered to help. After the carry on with facebook last year, I became less and less enthusiastic about this board and was frankly hurt by certain behaviours. Life's too short to deal with BS Jun 25, 2013 20:47:08 GMT

Mrs Vindecco: I no longer have energy or enthusiasm to continue, hopefully members can find another way to celebrate Dwight etc. Jun 25, 2013 21:00:26 GMT

Mrs Vindecco: Good luck to everyone in the future. Take care! Jun 25, 2013 21:04:24 GMT

endo: Same to you! Try to keep in touch when you can. Jun 25, 2013 21:35:52 GMT

limey: Thanks again Mrs V for all your hard work on this forum. I'm so glad I found you guys and to know that Dwight is loved and remembered by so many is awesome! Take care and yes, please keep in touch.

nordenwald: Sad to see this forum go, but glad it existed. Thanks Mrs Vindecco. And you picked a great date... June 25: Death of the greatest artist of the modern era, June 26: birth of Peter Lorre, the greatest... something of its era. Perpetuum mobile of the karma. Jun 25, 2013 23:46:38 GMT

endo: Noticed this place is out of maintenance mode. Bringing it back? That would be awesome! Aug 23, 2014 3:50:59 GMT
