Trenchcoated European Spy

This Nazi agent boarded the airplane out of San Francisco in 1936, concealing his face behind an issue of Life magazine as he spied on Indiana Jones. He followed Jones for some time before presumably turning the remainder of his assignment over to Arnold Toht.

Behind the scenes

 * The Nazi agent was played by an uncredited Dennis Muren.
 * Because the agent wears glasses and his face is only seen fleetingly, some have assumed he was meant to be Toht. However Muren has been quoted as saying he did not stand in for Ronald Lacey, and thus did not portray Toht. The identity of the "Toht lookalike" has yet to be established.
 * Campbell Black's novelization of the film combines this agent and Toht into one character although in the novel he boards the plane in Shanghai, not San Francisco.
