RECOLLECTIONS
III
My
parents just recently found a long-lost envelope of photos I thought I'd
share with you...
I
have no idea about these shots. I appear to be signing at a school
and from the look of those sideburns, I have to be about 19.
Here's
the shot the Indy Hall of Fame Museum
curator
found of me from the 1962 race day parade.
This year, I saw the race in style from the Mi-Jack suite -- isn't it terrific?
Check
out the mural for some of these guys who were there with me: |
Here I am with
mom and Angela Cartwright
-- who is still this adorable. I e-mailed her this photo. She loved
it, but didn't have a clue of where or when it was taken. You have to remember,
we went to so many of these types of events. And it was often more
work than play. But we look like we're enjoying ourselves wherever
we are. I'd guess this to be 1962 or '63.
Believe it or
not, I am 14 in this photo with Cesar Romero.
I was shocked when I saw the date. I would have guessed 9 or 10.
I worked with Cesar about 5 years later in "The Computer Wore Tennis
Shoes", my last film.

OK,
Tiger Beat Magazine -- eat your heart out!
My wife, Laurie, tells me that growing up in St. Louis,
she dreamed of having a California boyfriend like this.
She got her wish...32 years later.
This photo was
not in the envelope. It's from my scrapbook.
So far, I've ended each Recollections page with a photo of Tommy and me.
And, until I run out, I will again.
Here we are on the set, June, 1957 -- my first year on the show.
