REBUS puzzles

[Canuck]

I asked you to identify the role the thespian played, the venue involved, and the real life person. Here is another image of the real life person.

We've got a Princess, then Summer, Fall, Winter and Spring.

Google all of those combos and we arrive at Princess Summerfall Winterspring.

The Princess, played by Judy Tyler, was a character on the Howdy Doody children's television show.

 

[JimInOz]

Sorry, forgot a picture.

@JimInOz nailed it! The Howdy Doody show ran from 1947 to 1960. There was a 40th anniversary retrospective on it in 1987. Princess Summerfall Winterspring was played by Judy Tyler, the actress in my latest clue. Judy met her demise at he tender age of 24, in an auto accident in 1957, so a different actress played her role in the 40th anniversary show. It was unfair of me to dig that one up, since I am certain most who follow this forum, have never heard of the program.

Half the fun is finding these things out with a bit of google wizardry.

Well played @JimInOz

I don't think the show ever aired in Australia, so I was behind the 8 ball there, even if I'm in the right age bracket 😁.

Google tweaking came to the rescue though.

I figured that, once I showed the second picture of Judy Tyler from Google Images, that there would be an answer to this rebus. There are certainly times that a rebus will pop up that puts some of us at a disadvantage because of where we live. Well done @JimInOz !

Took a while for the penny to drop…

A bit different, this one.
It’s a phrase.
Shouldn’t be too difficult.

Here’s a clue.



What tactical advantage did this give to the Greeks?

While you tussle with the latest contribution from @Charlemagne1333 , here’s another for you to work on. Subject…a famous entertainer. A significant date involved.

Johnny Salami?

Not closer here than I am with the horsey clue.
