the old man we all knew

July 24 1894 -September 21, 1974

Every kid in my generation knew this man's name and love him.  He was Bogie's rummy sidekick, and even rode alongside the likes of Jimmy Stewart, Henry Fonda and The Duke himself.   He was one of the best character actors on both silver screen and television - a three time Oscar Winner.  If you ever saw him, you'd know that he was The Real McCoy!
