Calvin Jackson and George Stoll - Concerto For Index Finger featuring Gracie Allen

The Queen Of The World and I like watching the old TV shows ('50s, '60s, and '70s).  One of these is The George Burns Show, the star of which really is Gracie Allen who would steal the show pretty much every time.  Well, TQOTW discovered this gem from the last film appearance by Gracie, the 1944 film Two Girls And A Sailor.  It had an all star cast but Gracie stole the show with this hilarious number.

Say goodnight, Gracie.

That was great fun - and they don't make them like that anymore, that is for sure.

Gracie, shortly before dying said to a close friend who was visiting that day, said I must be getting much better, friend asked why? Why, you know hot tight with money George is and he bought me a full length mink coat. He wouldn't do that If I wasn't getting better. She died shortly thereafter.
