Watched "Hang 'em High" this afternoon. I'd forgotten the Skipper was a bad guy.

The epitome of French Cool. Alain Delon in the 1967 movie: Le Samouraï (Can anyone identify his lid?)

And, perhaps not quite so cool, but Rupert Davies made the character, Inspector Jules Maigret, all his own.

Greetings All: Alain Delon also acted in the movie Borsalino. This shot looks very similar. Humm...my money says that’s what he’s wearing.
Be well. Bowen

Looks to be in really good shape, Bowen.

Greetings All: Thanks HJ. It is in pretty good shape. Haven’t touched it and it could use some bending for sure but i don’t have the “sack” to wear it cause it’s such a behemoth!! Kinda glad it’s too big but it’s sure pretty to look at and is very well crafted. Valentine has a really cool story and his legacy can be seen throughout Hollywood in all those old cowboy classics! He built em for all those old boys! I’m very fortunate to be the steward of this one! Would like to see any others from fellow loungers. Maybe a “V” thread wii pop up??
Be well. Bowen

Richard Widmark and Lloyd Nolan, 1948 "The Street With No Name". Good Film Noir movie

Check out the guy wearing the tall crowned thin ribbon

I like that look and employ it myself, albeit with a silverbelly Strat lookalike and a single-breasted charcoal black topcoat.

The actor, for some reason, puts me in mind of the guy in the "Pottersville" sequence in It's a Wonderful Life, the fellow who sniffs George's breath to see if this weird guy squawking about his car is drunk. Could it be the same actor?
