Frank Sinatra & Jackie Gleason Out On The Town

I mentioned a few posts back about how good of friends Jackie Gleason was with Frank Sinatra. This picture is Frank sharing a laugh with Jackie Gleason at a Miami restaurant in 1964. They definitely look like they are having a great time. I wish I was at the table with these two cool cats.

Jackie Gleason On Cosmo

I absolutely love this Cosmopolitan magazine cover featuring Jackie Gleason. I'm a big fan of the legendary entertainer. I remember that I watched reruns of The Jackie Gleason Show when I was a kid. That variety show was actually one of the things that helped get me interested in the things that I love to this day. I've watched Jackie in everything from The Hustler to the Smokey and the Bandit trilogy to The Toy. Jackie was a good pallie of the Rat Pack, especially with Frank Sinatra. I hope you like this cover too. The look on Jackie's face is priceless.
