Attached is a transcript of a German article by Waltraut Hass about working with Flynn on William Tell. The second page has a copy of the original German article pasted onto it.
All of this is courtesy of Josef Fergerl who sent this as a gift after my book was published.
In his diary Flynn makes reference to “Cold Nose” and for some reason I once thought Cold Nose was a nickname for a person. Obviously Cold Nose is a dog.
Enjoy.

During the filming of William Tell Flynn made a publicity trip to Germany and Bavaria with German starlet Waltraut Hass. They were phtographed extensively by the German press corps.
Here is Errol with Waltraut in Bavaria.
