Errol on Empty, But Still a He-Man

May 7, 1937

If photographers had been outside the Club Marti the other midnight they could have shot an even more unusual shot of a Hollywood star. Errol Flynn discovered that his tiny English car was out of gas. On a dare from a friend he hoisted up the automobile by its rear end and pushed it wheelbarrow fashion to a gas station 100 yards away.

I’m on empty as far as photos of Errol’s “tiny English car” and “Club Marti”. Not only do I not know what car is being referred to, I also can not find any photo of Club Marti, which I have confirmed had opened shortly before this incident.
