That's an iconic shot of McQueen. DIRTTRUMPY off this forum once had a lifesize mural of this shot on the wall of his workplace.

Looks like the ISDT?

prefer this one from the photoshoper  :'(

Or if you have photoshop and too much time on your hands you can have a colour version.

                                                                       Note the ever present gasper stuck to his lip. That unfortunately is what killed him in the end.
                                                                          
                                                                                 

I don't think that the smokes were to blame for McQueen's death at the age of 50. He died from a mesothelioma related illness, which he suspected was caused by his exposure to asbestos in pipe lagging on troopships that he worked on when he was in the marines.

going by a few of the recent pictures, maybe this topic should be renamed  "the lost art of being cool"

"Johnny" was very cool to all of us post pubescent, rebellious, wannabe Milk Bar Cowboys who hung around the Ponderosa in Caringbah, particularly to this one, in his 1962 working clobber,



The Ponderosa put a television in especially for us to watch a screening of The Wild One, not every home had a TV in the '60s, I still reckon Lee Marvin was an ultra cool dude, on screen and off.
