ME: I'm afraid I was not one of the writers for LOVE, AMERICAN STYLE.
I have, however, worked with Paul Winchell and I worked with Shari

exact replicas of Mr. Winchell's two main dummies, Jerry Mahoney and
Knucklehead Smiff.

ME: The bookends are waiting for Sergio to have time to finish some
more sketches.  I think the watch has fallen through.
