Clara Bow & Gilbert Roland t-shirt

There is just something about this photo of Clara Bow and Gilbert Roland in 1925's The Plastic Age that has always touched our hearts in a special way.

A letter Gilbert sent to Clara many years after their on-screen and real life romance:

Hello, Clarita Girl,

I am truly sad that you don't feel well. Sometimes when I go to church and I think of you, I say a prayer. It will be heard. God hears everything.

You tell me that you long for your boys. I share your feelings. My daughters are with their mother in Wiesbaden, Germany. And there is nothing I can do, except cry a little once in a while.

I hope someday they show "The Plastic Age." It would be wonderful to see that dancing scene, you and I. It would be pleasant seeing how I looked when I was your beau and you were my dream girl. It would be pleasant seeing that. And then it might be very beautiful, and suddenly it might be very sad.

It seems you are in my thoughts.
It's good to feel that way.
It's good I have never forgotten you.

God bless you.

Gilbert
