<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ladybranch, post: 31826, member: 44&quot;]I bet you are right, Don! All I could think of was Jackie Cooper in his roles and knew it wasn&#039;t him. I forgot about Jackie **Coogan** and his roles such as <i>The Kid</i> with Charlie Chaplin. The pics of him from <i>The Kid </i>shows him as a ragamuffin, but usually with his hat askewed and usually wearing a loose turtleneck type sweater, but still believe it is Coogan. I think the pic is of him in <i>Oliver Twist</i>. Pics of him from that movie show him as a ragamuffin also, but wearing an open collar shirt and a hat straight as portrayed in this pic.</p><p><br /></p><p><i>Oliver Twist</i>:</p><p><a href="http://thebioscope.net/2012/02/15/pordenone-promises/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://thebioscope.net/2012/02/15/pordenone-promises/" rel="nofollow">http://thebioscope.net/2012/02/15/pordenone-promises/</a></p><p><a href="http://www.zazzle.co.uk/jackie_coogan_1922_vintage_film_still_card-137815564146634087" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.zazzle.co.uk/jackie_coogan_1922_vintage_film_still_card-137815564146634087" rel="nofollow">http://www.zazzle.co.uk/jackie_coogan_1922_vintage_film_still_card-137815564146634087</a></p><p><br /></p><p><i>The Kid</i>:</p><p><a href="http://www.zazzle.co.uk/charlie_chaplin_and_jackie_coogan_in_the_kid_1921_postcard-239923353042222536" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.zazzle.co.uk/charlie_chaplin_and_jackie_coogan_in_the_kid_1921_postcard-239923353042222536" rel="nofollow">http://www.zazzle.co.uk/charlie_chaplin_and_jackie_coogan_in_the_kid_1921_postcard-239923353042222536</a></p><p><a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/207841294/jackie-coogan-the-kid-collectible-tin?ref=market" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/207841294/jackie-coogan-the-kid-collectible-tin?ref=market" rel="nofollow">https://www.etsy.com/listing/207841294/jackie-coogan-the-kid-collectible-tin?ref=market</a></p><p><br /></p><p>That Jackie Coogan certainly had an interesting life. Not only was he a legendary child star who was more or less discovered by Charlie Chaplin, but also a glider pilot turning the WWII who flew Wingate&#039;s <i>Chindits </i>into Burma behind the Japanese lines, was married 4 times with the first being Betty Grable, was probably in close to 50 movies having lead roles in many from the 1920s, played a multitude of guest appearances on TV, and as you pointed out as Uncle Festus in the <i>Addams Family</i></p><p><br /></p><p>--- Susan[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
