Mystery Models

I know three people on the web named Steven (or Steve) Thompson. One of them runs a blog full of interesting artifacts. On it, he recently posted a photo of actors Steve Holland and Chris Noel, both of whom often posed for photos that artists used as reference for the painting of movie posters or paperback book covers or pieces of that sort. (Mr. Holland was the guy James Bama used as model for those Doc Savage paperback covers where his shirt was always torn. Did you ever notice that Doc was always wearing the same torn shirt? Holland only had one.)

Anyway, Br'er Thompson is trying to help someone identify what this photo was used for: What movie poster? What paperback cover? Go over there and see if you can help him.

I've bragged that readers of my site can always come up with an answer to any mystery. Don't let me down. Our honor (yours and mine) is at stake. And while you're there, check out some of the other neat stuff he has posted.
