TennTux Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 (edited) I was comparing pictures of M.P. from the Vinnies era and that's what I thought at first, Couldn't find pics of the other gent, but that kid pic could be older than we think. If this is who I think he is this photo IS older.... *edited to add, with further research, this IS who I was thinking and this pic is from 1947* Edited February 15, 2014 by TennTux Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ironlips Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 "...they don't bother me" ... He was known for his economy of expression and poetic delivery. (Little wonder that Andy the Wordsmith appreciates that.) Anticipating a detailed lecture, I once asked him for some arranging advice, specifically whether he thought I had over-written a certain part of Garfield's book. "A tad.", was all he said.
