It's hard to believe Terence (his given name) was only 5'9" tall. He was one of the sexiest movie stars in history.

He was one of the sexiest men ever!

I love a man who "works his side of the street"

Were these his shades?

Seraphine: That's pretty tall for me--since I'm 5' 7"! His late daughter, was named Terry. It's harder for me to believe she died at only 30.

dianne: I sincerely hope you like this year's festival. 3 years ago, I was told "You'll never do it. It can't be done". :D)) We will ROCK!

Seamus: Yes. They were worn in the film "The Thomas Crown Affair" and were auctioned off --I believe--for $65,000.00. They are made by Pearsol and Steve had his glasses made by that company. Sort of a trade mark! :)

Enjoy! He's a cool, cool guy

They are cool shades Michael. It's freezing here with grey skies, not weather for for sunglasses.

Love those shades!

Patti: And you're a "cool, cool girl"! :)

Ellee: I hate to punish my friends like this, but I must tell the truth. I was 75 degrees today, sunshine and blue skies (as usual) and invigorating with the desert and mountains always around me!

fleur de Lisa: I liked Steve's Tag Huer Watch from "LeMans" but not the $7,000 price tag. He wore his watch on his right wrist, by the way. I just thought I'd toss that in! ")
