I recently went mucking about in the stacks of boxes I call my 'archives'. I kick the dust off them and rummage about every hundred years or so... and this is what I found, some photos I took and some photos were took of me.
Yours truly with Gomer Pyle and Carol Burnett at a show they were doing for Vietnam bound marines.
Probably the ugliest scuba dive boat ever conceived by the mind of man... but boy it did a good job.
How about Prince Chuck at a Royal party at the Hotel Del Coronado!
Tricky Dicky Nixon who got in a bit of trouble as king and emperor, and C. Arnholt Smith, a major San Diego local, who later got into troubles of his own with a failing bank and did a little jail time. I don't recall taking this photo, and it may have been taken earlier than when I was at the paper, President Nixon looks awfully young.
A very excellent actual photograph of me doing what I do best. This was done by Chuck Beebe, an amazing cartoonist for the Tribune.
