Terzo Monachesi

[Johan Melle]

Terzo Monachesi in the fotoromanzo "Attendiamo un angelo" (1953)

This elegant, white-haired gentleman appears frequently in Italian films from the 1950s and early 60s. He also played small roles in various fotoromanzi, but appears to have been credited only a single time: in the fotoromanzo "Chimere" (1953).

[Johan Melle]

Terzo Monachesi was identified thanks to his only credited role in the fotoromanzo "Chimere", published in the magazine Sogno from December 1953 to May 1954). Note that the beard and moustache he has here are presumably fake, as he's always clean-shaven in the films I've found him in

Small uncredited role as a police inspector in "Attendiamo un angelo", published in Sogno from December 1953 to April 1954

And with a presumably fake moustache as the protagonist's father in "Amore e inganno", published in Sogno from October 1954 to February 1955
