Nice to see what Jackie Coogan was up to between THE KID and his tenure as Uncle Fester. Mostly, I know he had to go to court to try and get some of the millions he had earned away from his profligate mother and stepfather (and Coogan's Law is the legacy of that). Not sure the drawings capture him, but that's because I never see photos of him in the in-between years. |
