No he is not dead 👻so a very early Happy Birthday 🥳 to Walter who is currently 101 and will be 102 in November.
One of the last living links to film classics like The Magnificent Seven and The Great Escape plus many others.
Also, had his very own Super 8 experience by introducing a promo for 1979 Dracula. Apologises for print from memory it was better just slightly pink when bought new. Guess he was about 58 then. It also feature in the Blu ray issued that restored the original colour.
Most collectors use the footage on the 400 promo that does not feature in the 2x400 to extend their film but young Walter usually doesn’t reach the Final Cut.
