Del before I knew him

Since Del’s passing I have collected a bunch of great photos of Del from before I knew him. When I first met Del he must have been in his late 80s or early 90s and he always had quite a striking presence. It’s so amazing to see him so young in these photos. What a handsome man! Here are some of my favorites. Bebe and Del in Japan in 1956-7 Del at a Coffee Break in Minneapolis Calhoun Beach Hotel – May 5, 1959 #Del
