Che occhio ! Good eye
Fa piacere sapere che ci sono estimatori nel mondo per una serie chiusa da tempo. Però di un artista (diciamo?) consegnato alla storia.
L’amico Antonio Moreno fan di OnStage da un piccolo angolo di disegno – della foto qui pubblicata – ha capito di quale tavola si trattasse. Una Sunday del 24 Luglio 1960.
Complimenti per l’occhio.

June 6, 1944 Omaha Beach: Adam
Omaha Beach. Omaha was between Sainte-Honorine-des-Pertes and Vierville-sur-Mer, six miles long (largest). Taking Omaha was the U.S. 1st Army, 5th Corps’ responsibility, with sea transport from the U.S. Navy and elements of the Royal Navy. The movie Saving Private Ryan portrays some events here. The 1st Infantry assault experienced the worst ordeal of D-Day operations. The Americans suffered 2,400 casualties, but 34,000 Allied troops landed by nightfall. Divided into Charlie, Dog, Easy and Fox zones.
5 June 1944 Adam enters Rome
On 5 June 1944, more than 1,200 members of the Security (S) Force entered Rome with combat forces of the U.S. Fifth Army.
This is the story of that summer of ’44 and the making of the movie Rome, open city
The history of the cinema was divided into two eras: one before and one after Rome Open City (Roma Città Aperta, 1945).
