wise youngster whose heart is

Another UK press photo produced by ITC, this one a cropped version of TS-69-34A/4 from the US Press Materials folder, with its caption added on at an annoyingly noticeable angle. The last one had a 4 on it; this one is not numbered. There may be two or three more of these ITC photos out there, there may not.
Everything else I might have to say about this, I addressed in the last post. So, see yez later.

The soundtrack album cover image on the cover of Australia's Juke no. 302 is the only Robin content in the issue, but it's still a remarkable piece of Times Square history. In Melbourne at least, PolyGram Records promoted the heck out of the film's premiere for an entire weekend, and…
