When I was 8 years old, I really enjoyed the brief run of ABC's sitcom, THE SECOND HUNDRED YEARS, about a man frozen in ice years before and resurrected in (then) modern day America. The reason it was so much fun was actor Monte Markham, who played the dual role of the man and his lookalike grandson. This next Wednesday, Markham (who would also later play the New Perry Mason) is scheduled to be on live with Stu Shostak. Looking forward to it. Check here.
That ad from "America's Best TV Comics" must have been drawn before the show was cast or filmed.

Frank Conniff must be a fan of Markham.
