Filming in Spain

I hope no one is tired of these....

I think the last time I posted photos of John from "How I won the War", I said it would be the last batch.   And then what happened?   I found more on my computer that I hadn't shared.   And since I love John's look so much from this time (didn't really care of the film, but liked the look!), I decided to just go through the files and pull out the ones that haven't been shared and call it a day.    So these will be the last ones for at least a while.

That's a wrap!

The folks in the bottom photo met John and others int he cast of "How I won the War" and got a schedule sheet autographed.    Very, very cool

Pre-PETA days

Here is Paul and Jane at the premiere of "How I Won the War" in October 1967.  Ruth McCartney posted this photo on facebook this week and said that the woman behind Jane is her mother, Angie.   Jane gave Angie the fur coat that she is wearing to wear to the movie premiere.    Angie gave the fur to her daughter and it got stolen from her year later.

I wonder who that fellow in the background with the camera happens to be.

I love this photo!   Although I think the girls could look a tad bit more excited about meeting John during the making of "How I won the War,"  I won't complain because it is just too cute of a photo.
