13:30 | Hollywood Walk of Fame - A casual shot is a magazine pictorial

The Hollywood Walk of Fame was built by Southern California artist Oliver Wismuller, who was hired by the city government to "enhance the image" of Hollywood. At the beginning of its construction, many recipients received several star medals for their contributions in various fields. However, this practice has no longer occurred in recent decades (late 20th century to early 21st century), so only a very small number of early recipients received more than one star. The first star was placed in 1960, and its owner was Joan Woodward.
