Who is it - occasional What is it

Things are slow and it's hot
You may need a reason to stop by the forum

How about a guessing game - mostly Who is it

Again we aren't interested in how you can use search and tineye to find answers
We want them straight from your memory between the ears

I'm 68 and these are chosen from my memory

Ted and the younger set may suffer from a lack of exposure to these people.
History buffs or people interested in specific areas like racing, etc, may reach back for an answer.

I'll try and throw in some modern stuff along the way.

The younger folks will know things they didn't know before if they follow along.
Will make you more interesting on a date and playing those many table games.

Lets get started

A little tougher

These were his acting clothes

He wore a different uniform when creating his reputation the world knew about him.

I guessed correctly from your comment but because the missing helmet was misleading I had to search for another picture for confirmation.
Since I am disqualified from answering, just let me say he looks nothing like he did in the movie.

He had me going too - you're right, it's the lack of the helmet.

And that is one of my Favorite movies!

I've got some good ones in the can

You can't recognize them from the picture

You have to make associations to determine who it is.

Can't wait

Imagine how many images there are in your head and how you can associate them
with a name

Amazing

Maybe not quite as recognizable on her own
It's an old copy of Time (maybe the 50s)

Anna Eleanor Roosevelt?

Oops! I was wrong.

Just figured out who it really is. I'll let someone else give the correct answer.

Here is a good one.

I'll give you the man on the right - he's Henry Ford.

Now who can guess the name of the guy he supplied with one of the earliest race cars?

You will have to be lucky and just pull an old name out of your hat, or a real fan of early racing history

His initials in the morning if required

He's right it's not him

But it is an awfully good clue
