Though the last Mystery Photo was far away, several people chimed in quickly with the correct identification. Tom Upchurch of Suwanee recognized the mystery: “That would be the bust of Jack Lord (aka McGarrett of Hawaii Five O) at the Kahala Mall on Oahu Hi.” The photo came from Will Bradley of Las Vegas, Nev.
Also recognizing the photo were Stew Ogilvie of Lawrenceville; Susan McBrayer of Sugar Hill, who noted that “Sometimes, people put colorful leis around the neck.’; Jay Altman of Columbia, S.C., George Graf of Palmyra, Va.; and Allan Peel of San Antonio, Tex. Peel wrote: “The bust was installed in 2004 to honor Jack Lord (1920-1998), an American actor who was most famous for playing the part of Detective Steve McGarrett over 12 seasons (from 1968-1980) of the hit TV series Hawaii Five-O. Lord lived in Honolulu until his death of congestive heart failure in 1998. The bust, a fan memorial, was sculpted by Lynn Weller Liverton and dedicated in 2004 on the sidewalk outside the Macy’s at the Kahala Mall. Lord and his wife could occasionally be seen at the mall.”
George Graf also made us remember that catchy ending, when McGarrett added: “BOOK ’EM DANNO !!”
