Thanks for the info on the sheikhs house, so nice to find out more info after all these years.
Hopefully I can post some more stuff later

Welcome Joe, say hi to Norma. Paul Kelly is an interesting choice out of the box. He certainly defied what we might have expected to happen after a stretch in the pen. Except for the two years he was physically out of circulation, his career didn't really miss a beat. He became a sturdy, if unspectacular player, good for the second or third male lead right into the mid-fifties right up to his passing. Nice ironic, noir touch his playing the warden of San Quentin (his alma mater) in 1954. By the way, don't forget, 'take the vicuna.'
