Seeing Mimi's photo of Hugh Herr reminded me that I had these three photos. Here is Hugh on Hueco Crank, with his "extendo-Legs"... With these he was like 8 feet tall!!!
I think Fred Becky wins the Internets!!!

"Icon doit, Icon doit, Icon doit, Icon doit. Here goes nothing."
--The doltster's thought process as he moved on Traitor Horn.
Eddie:
A similar Dolt Mfg. Co. poster with a Traitor Horn shot featuring the Man Himself was posted in the Mtn. Shop in 1971, but it did not help in moving a lot of Dolt hardware, unfortunately. I believe Bill had on a ball cap of weird shape in the photo. Bill's ball cap bill was looong. Not extendo-leg long, but close. It put Da Brim in the shade!
Marlow: nice shot on the GGB. Not very good bridging technique. Shoulda got Hugh in on the action.
I got to the summit of the South Tower in the '70s, but via the elevator. It was a free ascent, though--no guiding fees.

LilaBiene showed me the print of this shot Mrs. K had sent to her.
This is one she liked especially well.
Thx, Hossjulia.
Is this a Glen Denny photo?

those pictures of Werner, especially of Astroman, are iconic; and as someone else said on another thread, but a damn piece in Werner.

"More iconic than iconic photos"
Iconic, iconicer, iconicest?
Iconincest, certainly.
Telling it like it was in the Legs.

Thanks to me? What do I have to do with it? I do have that scanned on my 'puter, but I thought I grabbed it off of here. No idea who took it.
