“Sal Mineo. 1939-1976, A great drummer and movie actor. He is seen here at 5-Points making a public appearance in 1957. As you can see, a big crowd of fans were there to see him. I had a black beard at the time.” LS
Photo is dated December 21. 1957. For some reason I find the black beard part of Loyd’s note very important. Sign over theatre doorway reads “Sal Mineo, Star of ‘Rock, Pretty Baby'”.
