I hope that by now everyone has begun reading Gary Giddins's Swinging On a Star: The War Years, 1940-46. As a third and final volume depends on how well this volume sells, be sure to buy copies for friends and family for Christmas as well!
To help commemorate the occasion of the release of this much anticipated book (in my own small way), I've added several new photos to my Bing Memorabilia web page. Many of them are from the War Years, and many have never been published before.
Enjoy. And happy reading!

Thanks Jon. That's an impressive collection and most I'd not seen before. The pictures with Bing smoking a pipe reminded me that after he gave up smoking he sent one of his pipes to a fan in Australia who lived less than an hour's drive from me, about 150 miles west of Sydney. She showed it to me with considerable pride. I might add that she had a Bing Crosby rose in her garden.
