Classic Stars Match Play #15 - Olivia de Havilland vs Greer Garson...I couldn't have chosen two more nicer people than these women..

For the next match play comes a pair of wonderful actresses: Olivia de Havilland and Greer Garson. Both did not fare well in the favorite classic actress tournament last year but they are both favorites of mine. So I don't know who I will be choosing yet. Will have to think on this one for a bit. The match begins immediately and will run through Sunday noon EST. Good luck to both women and thanks in advance for all those that plan to vote.
