I remember reading with fascination reports of the French wrestler, billed in UK as Le Hippy, when he wrestled at the Royal Albert Hall. I imagine that was his sole UK appearance?
I am now pleasantly surprised to find a match of his on line: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7348-r7Zog
Nice in the comments to see he is still alive at age 89 and his name is Gaston Jung Valléé.
The first bout features a very active and unmasked Batman, Dave Larsen.
I thought Larsen was good too. But I had to keep pinching myself because he was a double of Judo Al Hayes. Maybe just toooo similar?
The clip reminds me just how good Dave Larsen was. Somehow his face cannot have fitted here.
Good find Anglo Italian. He was billed as Maurice Jung here, but clearly his name was Gaston.
Yes indeed, Main Mask. That rings a clear bell.
But this one was a visting Frenchman, "ouclassed" according to The Wrestler, by Mr TV.
ANGLO!-Wasn't there a 1960's Wrestler Billed as BOB 'HIPPY' ANDERSON?
Sometimes Just 'HIPPY' ANDERSON?
I seem to Remember seeing him Live a Few Times!
