Big Clint Walker wasn't long of of his phenomenally popular CHEYENNE television western in '66 when this vehicle came out on his way to translating that success into big screen stardom. It had a really good cast and did well but the actor never did really make it on the big screen in the long run.

Ringo With Beard
16 MAGAZINE ran this rare shot of a bearded Ringo in the summer of '66, a full year before all the Fab Four sported facial hair for SGT PEPPER. Beatles expert Eddie Deezen points out that Ringo has always hated to shave, thus his pre-Beatles bearded look and then here. The teen mag pointed out that he quickly shaved it off. Can't risk offending fans now, can we? A beard might make him look OLD! Seen with Ringo is wife maureen and the two are being photobombed by a Mister J. Lennon.
