I saw that movie for the gajillionth time yesterday, and only then came to recognize him!!

I thought Stewart did a great job in the movie, especially his double-take when he found out Clarence was an angel!

    Sounds good, Stewart. Somehow, I'm not surprised!

    I'm sure it'd be tough being a stuntman and a Lincoln cent collector at the same time! image

    His current profession as a sculptor has helped him as a chiseler with coins. image

    You should ask him about the stunts he's had to perform to get some of those Lincoln's.

    Checked on-line through Google and found the man's name who played the toll-keeper in the movie

    It is: Tom Fadden .... Tollhouse keeper (uncredited)

    Well, that does explain the obscure scene in the movie where the toll-keeper asks George Bailey if he has has any high grade Lincolns for sale.

    Stewart Blay:

    I told my wife that it was really you in that movie with a little makeup to make you look older back then.

    She said, wow, you do look good for your age now! image
