[Chicago Astronomer - Astro Joe]

In a horrible Italian movie  (The Tiger and the Pussy cat - 1967),  Ann Margret plays a young woman intent on bagging an older man. Here, she finds inexplicable joy in viewing that man dress from across the street.


The scope is a simple 60mm refractor on a shaky alt/az mount and straight through finder scope.  About the standard for an entry level scope in the 1960's...probably a Tasco.  It also has a.096 eyepiece and a terrestrial erecting prism, but from this angle, it seems off - attached to a right diagonal?


Either way, not even the placement of a telescope can elevate this horrible movie.....

Hey Joe, that looks like the telescope I had as a late teenager when I had the hots for Ann-Margret, who despite being born in Sweden was raised in Chicagoland. Wow, that's great that she wants older men! Perhaps I now qualify? Or perhaps not, since she will always be a few years older than me.

Oh Curt.....

There would be so much you could teach her...much that she has forgotten!
