Fotoromanzi

---

1. Le avventure di Ray Kolman N. 29: "Ogni giorno nel tuo ricordo" (March 1972) - credited as Decio Gabin
2. Le avventure di Ray Kolman N. 32: Missione Sagapò (July 1972) - credited as Decio Gambini
3. Le avventure di Ray Kolman N. 34: "Un'orchidea rossa di sangue" (September 1972)

[Johan Melle]

With Bruno Alias in The Count of Monte-Cristo (1975) as a Member of the House of Deputies

[Johan Melle]

Verdi (TV mini series) (1982), as a Guest at Clara Maffei's salon

Rush (1983), as a Man hiding from the evil soldiers

[Johan Melle]

FBI - Francesco Bertolazzi investigatore (TV series, episode 1: "Sparita il giorno delle nozze") (1970), as a Man in the film footage

[Johan Melle]

I found our man in another fotoromanzo - more precisely in Le avventure di Ray Kolman N. 29: "Ogni giorno nel tuo ricordo" (March 1972)

He has a fairly large role as a character named "Robin" and - to my great surprise - he is actually credited!!

As you can see, his name is DECIO GABIN. So that's another mystery solved!

Il comune senso del pudore (1976), as Man at cinema pic by Ghibarian

[Ciavazzaro]

And mafia man in the sceneggiato Joe Petrosino (1972)

Thanks to vecchiaguardia this is Decio in Amore amaro (1974) as juror with Bertocci and Antonio Marcolin

[Ciavazzaro]

And I found a second fotoromanzo where Decio is credited ! In a Superflash, quite a big role

Johan Melle: Yes, and he is credited as Decio Gambini! I, too, have a fotoromanzo where he is credited as Decio Gambini, so I think maybe this one fotoromanzo where he is credited as Decio Gabin is probably wrong. My suggestion is to change the name to Decio Gambini and list Decio Gabin as an alias.

Ciavazzaro: Why not ! I agree with you.

Zanna Bianca as man in saloon - I think he is in the long coat by the bar
