"Hot Rod Gang" World Premiere, August 1958 photo via John Stutzer.

Thanks David for this great photo. I met John Ashley when I worked at the Fox Oakland Theatre in Oakland Ca during my high school days as loge usher. MR McDougal the Fox West Coast manager had him on stage along with some other stars from one of those AI beach type films that was so popular. The kids loved all the stars being live in person. Nothing like this today as most cinemas have no stage, no curtains and no showmanship!
