John Bryson (photographer)
James Garner, Eva Marie Saint, Yves Montand, Toshiro Mifune (starring)

N.p. N.p., 1965. Archive of four vintage oversize black-and-white double weight still photographs from the 1966 film. Shot and struck by special photographer John Bryson. The photographs feature Frankenheimer, actor James Garner, and cinematographer Lionel Linden.

Bryson was a photojournalist for Life magazine and many other publications, and was also a noted character actor, most notable for his appearance as a derelict in the films of Sam Peckinpah ("The Getaway," "Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia," and others). In "Grand Prix," the photographer broke the fourth wall and actually played himself, in addition to actually shooting on the set.

Shot on location in England, Belgium, France, Monaco, Italy, the Netherlands, and California.

Photographs vary in size, between 9 x 9.5 inches and 14.25 x 9.5 inches. A couple of small stains at the margins, and one photo with a corner crease. Very Good to Near Fine overall.
