    Trick or Treat Pete: Whoo-hoo!!!

    Well, you got everyone of 'em except that one on which you were stumped. Wow!

    So, bravo, my friend, for running the table, as it were, save for that one.

    Any takers on that last missing one?

    All my best,
    JKM

    Mustache or not, I figured that Jack Palance ("Ripley's Believe it or Not!", which I had to look up) was fairly recognizable.

    Lonestarr,

    That's a great guess, but that's not Jack Palance. I wish I had thought to put Palance on the list!

    Anyone else?

    best,

    I am still stumped. Here's a guess...maybe Vincent Price from Mystery!

    Trick or Treat Pete,

    That's an excelleng guess there, and Vincent Price would have been a great addition to this pictorial.

    But nope. That's not him.

    That figure is...Anthony Quayle, opening and closing host of the 1973-1974 horror anthology "The Evil Touch!"

    Very obscure!

    thanks,
    John
