Note Frankie's slightly altered make-up: the two dots are missing over his upper lip and it looks like a false nose.
I've got to get a hobby or something.

Anyone know what happened to Carmen and Eve? When I traveled with the show during the summer of '70 and throughout '72, Carmen was like a Mom to me. Richard, Zapata's brother Henry and I hung out together back then. What great people! ~frank
