Wow - looking at this picture I just noticed, that I own the very same bowtie! Is that good or not? :-k

But right, Fedora. Who is this? A customer of yours? :wink:
Am I young enough, to guess? :-s :D

I'm 37, but that actor looks very familiar. Is he playing the old Indiana Jones from the YIC series?

Sorry, Michaelson, I couldn't find your yearbook photo, so I had to resort to the drivers license. :wink:

Wow, I'm 23 and thats old Indy from YIJC. I always thought he didn't quite fit the role. He definitely softened up in his old age. My favorite memory of him was the episode where he was in the hospital ER and they needed a volunteer to give blood, probably type O and Indy's story made some "cool dude" feel bad and give blood to save someone's life.

ahh, memories

Yes, that is definitely old Indiana Jones. I remember watching YIJC when I was little. My best memory of the show is an episode where he talks about a little egyptian (maybe Anubis?) statue in a museum that he found many years before. He might have slid down the banister of some stairs at the end, I don't remember too well.
I do remember, however, that I was always bothered by the fact that he had an eye patch, I thought it was the biggest rip-off of all time.
As far as the actor goes, I think he might have been in an old version of Cinderella starring Julie Andrews on T.V. But, someone might want to double-check on that.

Poor Indy, not only does his hat need a reblock. So does he.

Yeah that's the British actor George Hall who played the 93-year-old Dr. Henry Walden "Indiana" Jones, Jr. in the TV show the Young Indiana Jones Chronicles.

At about the same time he was doing these 'bookends' for Lucas, he was also appearing in a show on American Movie Classics called "Remember WENN". It was about a radio station and the operation of same during the late 30's and early 40's. He was one of the 'on air' actors.
