According to these two pics Price looked taller than Wayne. Price looks clearly a 1`93 man and Wayne looks more in the 1`90 area.

I was thinking around 182 Sam, I thought he was similar to Van Heflin in Battle Cry and as Sue says he was looking 10-11 inches taller than Wood and Reynolds.

He does generally look a six footer, can look taller there w/ John Wayne but certainly not over six foot in most photos. Don't know about w/ Glenn Ford.

Looked about 10 or 11 inches taller than Natalie Wood and Debbie Reynolds who were both around 5ft 1 so I would say 5ft 11 to 6ft

This height guessing business can really be tricky can't it? Some poster on Heflin's page says he was the same height as Glenn Ford who I have at a weak 5'11", yet in compairson to Jennifer Jones seemed to edge out Louis Jourdan who could look 5'11.5" peak himself in some roles!!

Nice one, can you add The Girl He Left Behind, Lafayette Escadrille and They Came to Cordura? and tweak pound. to pounds? I was thinking a solid 5'11 range like 182 but I guess 6 ft might be a good shout. Van Heflin you know might have been 182 then I thought they looked similar. I honestly thought 181 seemed the best fit for Heflin though, although with Louis Jourdan he could look a weak 6 ft. In fairness Tab didn't look under 6' with Wayne in The Sea Chase. Tab and Heflin were in Gunman's Walk together, I might try to see that one.
