I am so pleased you like my little pictorial Potpourri.
Deleteand I must admit that I did think of you with the Sal Mineo. I love him too and think he might well have a permanent place in future posts
Gasp! The boy at work looks just like Sal Mineo!! Well, he might not now - I haven't seen him since March (he rarely shows his face on Teams/Skype/whatnot because he's been giving himself terrible haircuts...)
ReplyDeleteAn intriguing set of pictures - I love Sir Robert Helpmann as Oberon.
Gosh ! If I worked with any one that looked like Sal Mineo I would never get any work done.
DeleteWe adore Robert Helpmann a Queen of the highest order and she has been well and truly documented in the 'Dolores Delargo Towers - Museum of Camp.
