  2. Who are the two women on Fitzgerald's passport? Is it Zelda and Scottie? Why are they crossed out? I've never seen a passport with three photos on it.

  3. They used to issue what was called a "family passport." I've got my grandfather's from the 1930s and it a photo of his wife and three children. At some point they stopped issuing those and now each family member, including children, has to have his/her own passport.

  4. The Bowie one isn't a real one -- it's the prop one for "Thomas Jerome Newton" in THE MAN WHO FELL TO EARTH (you can see the wrong birthdate and occupation).
