THE ENIGMATIC, MYSTERIOUS AND PRIVATE PERSONA THAT WAS ONE ALAN ALMOND.
JIM HARPER, WHAT DID HE REALLY LOOK LIKE?
Former WNIC morning personality Jim Harper responded to this very question posed to him on his personal Facebook page (June 23 at 8:31 p.m.) —
“I shared a link yesterday that featured the late, great Alan Almond and your response was huge. But some of you are still asking “What did he really look like…tell us please!” Here’s the closest photo (see photo below) of a gentleman who I always thought resembled Alan. It’s the iconic ladies man, Errol Flynn. I’m sure many who worked with Alan would agree, this is pretty close. Not identical, but close.”
Jim Harper, formerly from within the WNIC prime while you were there, having known Alan Almond during the three years I was at WNIC, in the early-mid 1980s, I can attest of your assessment you best described of Alan’s features. Yes, indeed. The Errol Flynn contrast (and even the hair!) is, for the most part, rather close. “Not identical, but (it is) close.” — Jim Feliciano
