You knew a lot of people must have taken photos of them during these tours but how many have you seen? Thanks to Russel Ries for a nice article and discovery of some rare photos …

The July 2013 Rock-itt Magazine is now online!

01 Jul

Pete, at the Rock-itt Magazine tells me that he thinks Flynn is having a bit of fun with him – as the Hobart to Hollywood entry of his continuing series Our Famous Mr. Flynn is missing from this issue because at it was being saved, it disappeared! He could swear he heard Flynn chuckling! It will be seen in the next issue!

Robert Florczak’s Movie Locations Then and Now series is much alive in this issue with shots from Roman Holiday and Invasion of the Body Snatchers!
