ABOVE TWO PHOTOS: I believe this is the only Rockford Files episode that has a woman older that James Garner playing a love interest of his. The beautiful Lauren Bacall was born in 1924 where as James Garner was born in 1928.
AMAZINGLY BOTH GARNER & BACALL ARE BOTH WITH US TODAY IN 2012.
The above images are from the filming location directly outside Western Costume Rentals located at: Next to the Paramount Motion Pictures Group, Melrose Avenue, Los Angeles, CA
THANKS TO ROBERT HOWE FOR THIS CORRECTION
