Considering that it's Jack Benny playing the violin, maybe Levant isn't smiling; maybe he's wincing.

Ya know, it's gotta take a feller pretty slam-bang secure in his sense o' manhood to sport around in a chapeau like what Tim McCoy's wearing . . :roll:
That, or he learnt to bust broncs at the Eye-talian Clown School . . :roll:

Klondike, when I posted that image of Tim McCoy, I thought to myself that a board member will definitely comment on that hat. Thanks for coming through.

Munchkin Meinhardt Raabe dead at 94

Raabe was best known for his uncredited, 13-second role in the Oscar-winning classic, during which he uttered the famous lines "As coroner, I must aver, I thoroughly examined her. And she's not only merely dead, She's really most sincerely dead." He was one of the last surviving Munchkins, according to the report

Yay! Three of my most bestest favoritest actors having birthdays on the same day: von Sydow, Morgan and Connors.

And Poncie Ponce! Wow, Joe, you know how to pick 'em. It's a very funny thing, but just about the only memory I have of an actual episode the TV show Hawaiian Eye is one that focused on an adventure of Mr. Ponce (now what was he on the show -- a cabbie?). I remember him crying at some point, and playing the ukulele at the end and singing "For You" to a pretty girl. How odd.
