Hi,
I enjoyed the Laguna Beach then and now pictures you posted. Very nice. Years ago, I came across to complete production records for that film, even down to who the sword fighting doubles were on the beach and when they lost the sun. Very interesting stuff,
You can pretty much go day by day and scene by scene and even shot by shot of that film and know what time people came and left. A bit of a rabbit hole! But it’s a complete record of a classic film.

The first pic is an overall of the entire page, but unfortunately is not legible due to the limited size of the copy here, as well as the quality of the paper. But added is the blow-up of Flynn. Those who have access to newspapers.com…, or a similar site, can read the read the content …
