After some quick research of my own - [here](http://www.lewiscarrolltours.com/images/churchill_young.jpg)is a young Winston Churchill, in similar attire. You have to admit that there is a certain resemblance. ---

> [@tdn](#): > > Who’s the [guy on the left](http://donnatrussell.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/fantasticks.jpg)? Why, it’s none other than [the late, great Mr. Jerry Orbach](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GYiorhIIsXI) as El Gallo in **The Fantasticks**. I should know, as I listened to the original cast recording of same on a nearly endless loop back in 1996 when I played Huckabee in a local production. Good show, that. ETA: Well, shit. As usual, I’m a day late and a dollar short, and this was guessed already. ---

I can’t find a photo, but even better would be a picture of Peter O’Toole from the movie _Kidnapped_. It’s pre-nose job. ---
