Pandina Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 Che bella! :thumbsup:I like the fact that they used an original approach in this type of promotion, I mean everyone would expect a postcard with Glenn only, after all it was his acting debut.Instead they opted for this beautiful retro graphics where he's hardly seen! This proves once again that MV was light years ahead!Glenn Frey looks cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COOPER&BURNETT Posted December 1, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 Wasn't that photo of him from one of his album covers? Perhaps not. I have seen the photo before somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pandina Posted December 1, 2009 Report Share Posted December 1, 2009 Wasn't that photo of him from one of his album covers? Perhaps not. I have seen the photo before somewhere.No it's not.It could be a photo taken from the inlay of "The Allnighter" album, because the photos were b/w.You can tell that the photo in the postcard was originally b/w and coloured at a later stage.

That's why it's recommended to take out the colour from a TV set when watching a b/w movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
