The buzz of the web for some time, Warner has officially announced their Jean Harlow 100th Anniversary Collection.

Seven films on seven DVDs, this set is available for sale now at WBShop. The normal lag time of eight weeks for Archive titles is waved for this set some as we will have all seven available on November 1st.
A true trend-setter, the first “Platinum Blonde” provided the template for an archetype that stretches from one century into the next. True film buffs owe it to themselves to celebrate, discover, or rediscover her achievements as an actor.
