Peter Pan, 1960. Mary Martin. My all time favorite childhood fairytale-TV special-Peter Pan actor.
It is my heartfelt belief that the best portrayals of Peter Pan have been by women, and they have delivered a not- so -secret message to girls everywhere through the years-- about freedom and possibility.
Of course who better in flight than Peter Pan!
ReplyDeleteThat picture of Peter does remind me of a pilot.
ReplyDeleteAnd there have been so many female Peter Pans. I love your take on the flight theme. This is really fun.
ReplyDeleteHow clever of you to think of Peter pan for the flight theme.

It's so obvious a topic when someone else has done it. Congratulations on picking Peter Pan.
ReplyDeleteI remember a visit to the theater to see Peter Pan when I was a child; a magical experience. Nice take on the theme!
ReplyDeleteOh well done. I am having to repeat myself so often with every new Sepia Saturday post I read this week - but what a creative response to the theme.
ReplyDeleteYes! The Mary Martin version. I was so excited when it came out on VHS tape so long ago. Magical.
ReplyDeleteI went to a performance in LA of Peter Pan staring Kathy Rigby. She flew up and over the audience. Was great fun.
Nice spin on the theme.
ReplyDeleteI remember Sandy Duncan playing Peter.
