Three establishing shots from the pilot episode of the TV series Starsky and Hutch which aired in April of 1975 on ABC - called “The Threat”. Starsky does an inventory of detective work related items stored in the enormous glovebox of Hutch’s car which includes walkie-talkies, a shotgun and a reference book of perps. Starsky’s highly recognizable Ford Grand Torino is left in the parking lot as the viewer at home was taken on a ride along.

Power Of Persuasion
Paul Fitzpatrick: London, March 2023 Growing up in the 60s and early 70s we had it pretty good I reckon. On our piece of the rock there were no wars, pandemics or civil unrest. True, there was the odd power cut in the early 70s due to the miners strikes, but I remember that being more an adventure-under-candle-light than any real form of hardship.Apart from the normal growing pains and…

Grandpa Torino AU x All for Support AU x Grand Debut AU: Gran Torino was highly amused at seeing his grandson's rampage against the Sports Festival Invaders. Especially since he knew how much Izuku was looking forward to making an impression.
Look at him go

La tragedia di Superga | The Superga Tragedy
Today marks the anniversary of a tragedy happened on May 4th 1949: an airplane carrying the Grande Torino football team and 3 journalists (31 people in total) crashed over the Superga hill outside Turin. Nobody survived. They were coming back home after a friendly match against Benfica in Portugal. Our whole country got very hurt after this tragedy, not just football's enthusiasts but everyone: those people were a symbol of Italy's strength and rebirth after WWII. 10 out of 12 players were part of our NT back then. The team had to end the Italian Championship with the youngers team, and so also the opponent teams did the same when playing against them as a sign of respect. The Federcalcio proclaimed the Grande Torino winner of the Scudetto that year.

75 anni fa la scomparsa del Grande Torino
Poco dopo le ore 17.00 del 4 maggio 1949 l'aereo che riportava a casa la squadra di calcio del Torino, reduce da una partita amichevole giocata a Lisbona, andò a schiantarsi contro il muraglione che sostiene la Basilica di Superga.
A causa della fitta nebbia che gravava sulla zona (la visibilità era di 40 metri) ed il probabile malfunzionamento dell'altimetro, al momento di allinearsi con la pista di atterraggio l'aereo era venuto a trovarsi su una traiettoria e ad una quota diversa da quella che avrebbe dovuto tenere.
Tutte e 31 le persone a bordo morirono nello schianto.
I 4 membri dell’equipaggio, i 3 giornalisti che avevano seguito la squadra per commentare la partita, 6 tra dirigenti e tecnici, l’intera prima squadra e sette riserve.
Quella che da molti è ritenuta una delle più forti squadre di calcio italiane di sempre, entrata nella storia del calcio come Grande Torino, non c’era più.

Di seguito le prime pagine dei giornali dell'epoca che mio papà ha conservato.

Mi raccontò papà (all'epoca aveva 22 anni) che quando cominciò a circolare la notizia che un'aereo si era schiantato contro la collina di Superga e che si diceva che a bordo ci fosse la squadra di calcio del Torino, la gente era sbigottita, non poteva credere ad una simile eventualità.
Il telefono non era così diffuso nelle case e mio padre disse che assieme a degli amici andò a cercarne uno che trovò (credo) in un bar, e da lì chiamarono la sede del Torino calcio.
Alla loro domanda: "Allora?", la risposta fu: "Tutti."
E la comunicazione venne interrotta.
