Title: Hula Hoopin' Barnabas
Post by: PennyDreadful on September 10, 2010, 04:36:12 PM

I've seen pics of Jonathan Frid (as Barnabas) with Bozo, but I don't recall ever having seen this one!

That photo is one among the more than a hundred photos that were published in December 1969 by Paperback Library (the outfit that did the Marilyn Ross DS novels) in the book Barnabas Collins: A Personal Picture Album (compiled by Frid himself).  [ghost_smiley]

Reminds me of my astonishment about three years ago when JF was shooting hoops with a ten year old kid: JF got two out of three shots at the basket.  My jaw dropped.

I think an 80-something Frid shooting baskes trumps a 40-something Frid hula hooping! Too bad you don't have a photo of that.  [ghost_wink]

It was spontaneous.  But, I'll tell you this - I'll never get that picture out of my mind! I was flabbergasted. [ghost_nowink]
