Can you name this person?
- Thread starter pal
- Start date
Leave it to the VA Hospital to screw up treatment for an in-grown toenail.
OK, name the dog.
Asta?
Skippy would have also been acceptable.
ASTA in The Thin Man
- The wire-haired terrier scene-stealer from The Thin Man (1934) and the first sequel, After the Thin Man (1936) belonged to a special effects technican at MGM and went by the name of Skippy.
- Skippy was trained by MGM property master Henry East who would not allow the film's stars, Myrna Loy and William Powell, to play with the dog offscreen for fear it would ruin his concentration on camera.
- Skippy also made a memorable appearance as George, the trouble causing dog in Bringing Up Baby (1938) alongside Cary Grant and Katharine Hepburn.
- Compared to other canine actors in Hollywood that earned $3.50 a day, Skippy was the top breadwinner with a weekly salary of $250.00.
- - Henry East was joined by fellow trainers Rudd Weatherwax and Frank Inn in working with other Astas besides Skippy in the additional Thin Man features such as The Thin Man Goes Home (1945) and Song of the Thin Man (1947).
It's your ups.
The Thin Man series are great movies by the way. Highly recommended for anyone who hasn't seen them.

No. Think mid-20th century. An illustrator of sorts.
Another hint: Frederic Wertham went after this guy and his ilk.
Still no takers? Another clue:
