Rare photograph of Dorothy with her first husband, Herbie Kay in 1933.

Her agent thought that the marriage would be useless, short and career-threatening. However, they were dead set in their ways. Knowing they could practically get married in seconds in Harrison, with no wait, they hailed a cab and off they went. Little did they know, there are two Harrison locations: one in New York and one in New Jersey. Winding up in the wrong Harrison, they had to return home, unmarried.

This was taken during the broadcast that took place afterwards, where Dorothy would describe to the audience that Bob had made a nose imprint, and what a delight he looked.
