Great photos! I miss the old days.
Great stuff.
Nice pics, and a great time was had by all, I'm sure.
I had no idea Goble attended one of these. Is that Sandi with you?
Nice selection, and to my knowledge, only three deceased (that is, alas, the chief problem viewing photos of this vintage). The blonde in the last photo is Carolyn McFarland, at the time consorting with Bruce Taylor.
I forgot to note that Anonymous above is Art Scott himself, once the Avedon, Steichen, Weegee, and Flash Casey of the paperback set.
A.S.
I count three, too, Art, but haven't seen the Cap'n in a while. Is he still kicking?
Alive, but not kicking. I hurt my foot eight days ago and still have a hitch in my gitalong.
Bill and Lance are gone. Who's #3?
Never mind, I didn't notice Blackbeard's name. Is Jim of Jim and Ellie still around? He's in the background of one shot.
Jim is not in the best of health, but he's still with us.
