Post by: Douglas on April 14, 2003, 02:02:55

take a look at the guy in the b&w photo in this auction:

now compare him to the driver of the car in this auction:

am i mistaken or is that the same person years later?

The guy posing in the photograph "the colour of money" is purported to be Tony Clifton. Andy Kaufman is thought to be Tony Clifton. And Bob Zmuda has also appeared as Tony Clifton. Kaufman, and therefore the real Tony Clifton is meant to be dead. Well, watch the film "Man on the Moon" and get really confused.

I reckon the guy in the second link is someone else.
