My dad was a movie buff and he had an 8x10 B&W glossy direct from the studio signed my Clint Eastwood. He worked at the Star Theater in Oceanside, CA when the film was released. Back then I wasn’t really thinking of the photos’ value. Dang if I know what came of it but I wish I had it now. This thread brings back memories in a way I can't describe.

Today, the theater is a historical landmark and was restored to its 1960’s appearance. I get an eerie feeling when I go there and see it. My dad was the manager there for 7-years and I can still see him tearing apart tickets at the door when the Clint Eastwood films and others' were king.

A bit later in life I saw Clint Eastwood at his Carmel restaurant ‘The Hogs Breath’ when he came in with his girlfriend. Man, if this all doesn’t make me want a DH kit then nothing will. Fact is, some memories bring back more pain than joy, but its all good.
