Stargazing At The Needle 1962

August 12th, 2008 @ 12:22 am by Cliffe | Sorted Photo Exposureborder
Now this is cool. While we’re not nearly as timely or star-obsessed as TMZ (yes, we’re 46 years late) — today we’re a gossip mag. Routing through a bundle of old ‘62 World’s Fair photos I’ve procured, I found this: a photo of a man and son eating atop the Space Needle. A mundane scene, but then hand-written on the back: “Jack Lemon [sic] & son Chris. Space Needle May 24/62.” Neat. Someone snapped this photo of Jack Lemmon and his son at dinner in the Needle. Sure enough, a quick search of HistoryLink confirms that Lemmon was indeed at the fair. And according to Google, Chris Lemmon is now an actor/writer. Click on the photo for a larger view.
