HOLLYWOOD FOREVER CEMETERY
The grave of fashion critic, Mr. Blackwell, is finally getting a marker

With the first anniversary of Mr. Blackwell’s death approaching (October 19), his grave marker is currently being constructed. Here are photos of it in its present stage with the engraving stencil still attached. It looks as though it’s going to be an imposing monument, worthy of the caustic fashion critic.
Mr. Blackwell’s marker is still in pieces and it looks like there is something yet to be attached to the top.
NOTE: Estelle Getty’s grave marker is still just a cement base. No progess yet.
