Paramount Pictures child star Carolyn Lee gets a ride on a studio Mail Department bike, with director Edward H. Griffith doing the cycling (in suit and tie and chapeau). It’s 1944, and the film the two are working on is Virginia. Lee would make only six pictures during her acting career; Griffith would direct 61 features. Here’s the snipe:

“THRILL OF A LIFETIME — Carolyn Lee, Paramount’s 5-year-old star, gets one of those thrills that only come when you’re 5. Giving her a ride on the handlebars of a bicycle borrowed from a messenger boy is Edward H. Griffith, producer/director of ‘Virginia,’ the modern romance co-starring Madeleine Carroll and Fred MacMurray, in which the talented youngster from Martin’s Ferry, Ohio, has a stellar supporting part.”
