How interesting!! I know what a fine character actor Abe Vigoda is and how accomplished, as witnessed by the many parts he has had. I bet he had some fascinating stories to tell. If you're up to it, it'd be so cool to hear about a few of them.
Thanks for your great thread!!!

He's been making on speaking appearances on Late Night With Conan O'brien, he looks great for his age.

Look at the price on that comic...TEN CENTS......what are they now, $3-5?
Ahh the good old days!
