Robert Blake aka Mickey Gubitosi was one of the child stars of the Our Gang/Little Rascals comedy shorts along with Spanky, Alfalfa, Buckwheat, Darla, etc. back in the early 1940s. That is where the picture is from (he is on the lower left).

Blake starred in many movies and TV shows over the years. His did a great job in Truman Capote's "In Cold Blood" and as "Baretta" in the 1970s TV series. His co-star was a large white bird.

Of note he was charged with killing his wife about 10 years ago. He was aquitted but the stigma (a la O.J., etc) lingers. He hasn't acted much, if at all, in the recent past.

I just got back from the April 2011 Hollywood Show.

Here's my in-person autograph haul:

Martin Landau

Connie Stevens

Dominique Swain

Jon "Bowzer" Bauman

Johnny Contardo

Maureen Flannigan

Not a large crowd, but I waited 2 hours and 10 minutes for Martin Landau due to some people wanting as many as 70 items signed. They eventually decided they needed to speed up the line and imposed a 10 item limit.

Joey Lawrence cancelled at the last minute.

He was. I spent a lot of time talking to him and Johnny Contardo about the show, music rights, and Bowzer's My Music show. And his picture pose was awesome.
