OK, time for one of those rebus clues:

Ah...Barbara Nichols. I couldn't think of her name!

by **shimp scrampi** » Mon Apr 27, 2009 2:57 am

Yep, Barbara Nichols, who played Jack's girlfriend "Mildred Meyerhouser" in several episodes of the TV series, including the episode where they pester Jimmy and Gloria Stewart at a concert (which was the origin of the bow-tie clue).

Here's a classy bit of Jack Benny related ad copy. What's it from?

Hmmmm......I'm going to go ahead and say Charley's Aunt?

by **shimp scrampi** » Wed Apr 29, 2009 4:19 am

CHARLEY'S AUNT, indeed!

I always kind of liked Jack's original title for his autobiography, "I Always Had Shoes". Now I wish he'd named it "Funny Enough in Pants".

Onward ...

Bears! What's the Jack Benny connection to these two?

by **Moose Hatrack** » Wed Apr 29, 2009 7:02 am

A couple of Disney film characters here... Baloo the bear was voiced by Phil Harris in Jungle Book and Friar Tuck was played by Andy Devine in Robin Hood. (In Robin Hood, Phil voiced Little John)

Oops, upon further review, the officials decide that both of these grabs came from the Robin Hood flick. Balloo is apparently not pictured.

by **shimp scrampi** » Wed Apr 29, 2009 8:31 am

Yep, Andy Devine and Phil Harris voiced Friar Tuck and Little John in Disney's ROBIN HOOD. On a related note, Verna Felton (Dennis' Mother) also played a role in THE JUNGLE BOOK with Phil as Baloo.

Next!

Who's this?

by **Moose Hatrack** » Wed Apr 29, 2009 11:49 am

Meyer Kubelsky?

by **shimp scrampi** » Wed Apr 29, 2009 2:21 pm

Nope, not Jack's father!

by **Moose Hatrack** » Thu Apr 30, 2009 12:14 pm

I know I know I know...
Norman Krasna!

Not Norman Krasna either ... this guy plus my signature picture form an accidental 'before' and 'after' comparison though ... :wink:
