“Chester” just made an appearance on Dragnet. Such distinct voices.

I suspect it won’t be the last. :-)

A dream of mine is to actually get paid to write. :-D

That’s an obvious voice...so unique it’s hard to see him in different roles.

There’s a really fine Plymouth!

But, GADS!—what a sad story! She was so terrified of being taken by the Indians that she killed herself!

7,000 was the last count. :)

I hadn't heard of SPERDVAC. Thanks for the link!

My main source, of course, is http://www.archive.org/

The library at http://www.otrr.org/ is a gold mine, but registration is required.

Good stuff!

Ed’s wrong. Cagney did say the rat line, I’ve seen the film.

I wasn’t aware that Ed was blind. Do you know if he has been blind all his life?

Yes, he is blind since birth, if I remember correctly.

The actors performed for free to donate money to the “poor actors.” Is that because of the communist black lists?

Too bad. i must have missed it when he revealed that.

I've enjoyed the old Joy Boys short, clever segments that Ed has offered in the past when he was part of the cast.

Ed did not reveal it, but I did “research” on him and discovered it on various websites, including the usual Wikipedia entry (don’t like Wikipedia, but read it sometimes): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ed_Walker

Also, after I learned he is blind, I was even more amazed at him—what a guy!

I believe that show was at least 10 years before the commie hunts.
