      Blake also, as a child actor, played Mickey in the "Little Rascals" movie shorts filmed between 1939 and 1944. He went by his birth name of Mickey Gubitosi as a child actor.

        He also had a small part in the great movie "Treasure of the Sierra Madre" as a child actor (kid selling raffle tickets). I also remember him from the movie "This Property is Condemned" w Natalie Wood and Robert Redford. RIP.

          Was he the last surviving Little Rascal's actor?

            I really appreciate the lack of "RIP" on this one.

            Pretty impressive how long he lasted in prison.
            Larry David was once being heckled, long before any success. Heckler says "I'm taking my dog over to fuck your mother, weekly." Larry responds "I hate to tell you this, but your dog isn't liking it."
