He's a funny man Tony. Yes I've seen the Dentist. I was looking at number 77 in your post today, so I know who he is, but will leave it for someone else. In fact there is another photo I came across which is quite distressing. I'll put it up after someone identifies your Man.

Dino Paul Crocetti (June 7, 1917 - December 25, 1995), known famously as Dean Martin, was an American actor, singer and comedian. One of the most popular and enduring American entertainers of the mid-20th century, Martin was nicknamed "The King of Cool" for his seemingly effortless charisma and self-assurance. Martin gained his career breakthrough together with fellow comedian Jerry Lewis, billed as Martin & Lewis, in 1946. They performed in nightclubs and later had numerous appearances on radio, television and in films. Following an acrimonious ending of the partnership in 1956, Martin pursued a solo career as a performer and actor.
Martin established himself as a notable singer, recording numerous contemporary songs as well as standards from the Great American Songbook. He became one of the most popular acts in Las Vegas and was known for his friendship with fellow artists Frank Sinatra and Sammy Davis Jr., who together formed the Rat Pack. Starting in 1964, Martin was the host of the television variety program The Dean Martin Show, which centred on Martin's singing talents and was characterized by his relaxed, easy-going demeanour. From 1974 to 1984 he was roastmaster on the popular Dean Martin Celebrity Roast, which drew notable celebrities, comedians and politicians.
As a footnote, his friends said that he was the most famous drunk in the world

Can't believe this. I'll have to give it to you. His most famous film was probably "Lawrence of Arabia." If you don't get him now, you never will.

They are only easy, if you recognise them, Sheba
I was going to guess at Rudolf Valentino, who had piecing eyes, but he was not around for Lawrence of Arabia
It certainly does not look like Peter O'Tool, who from memory, was the main actor in Lawrence of Arabia
Perhaps another clue, may help

Sorry Tony, not Alfred, although his first name does start with an "A", and he is a Pom. You will have seen him in quite a lot of Movies.

Thank you Sheba. Now who is this famous guy ?
Still need that Brain transplant dammit. Know that face, but the name won't come. Very frustrating !!!
But I could not even make a wild guess, to who he is
He is a British Author, coming up 87 years old. His books were and still are very popular.
Wilbur Smith. Thought it was, but I finally found him.
