I'm really diggin' on the helmet in the foreground and Donlevy's pose is bad ass! Repeat post. This one is too cool and rare to miss.... "You can't smell any reefer, can you"?

Actors L-R: Brian Donlevy, Maurice Kaufmann and Lionel Jeffries pictured during the making of the film "Quartermass Experiment", 1954 Then again maybe this is rare. I certainly don't remember the wooden slat flooring and the astronaut seats look very low. I'll have to check this out in the film...Anyone care to chime in? (Could these be rehearsal stills prior to actual filming? Maybe they dressed up the set a little better when they filmed it) False alarm. Everything in the still is in the film....:-( Though kudos to Hammers sound effect department. As our 3 pals are walking about the ships interior it sounds like their walking on metal grating...

Seems Britain's first citizen of everything Quatermass, Mr. Steven Reed is absolutely correct when he said there were pics of Jack Warner's Lomax. Here be one. And I'm correcting the spelling and title of the caption....(Actor Jack Warner pictured during the making of the film "Quatermass Experiment", 1954 "You can't smell any reefer, can you"?
