One of his final credits was a February 1966 episode of Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea (1964). Signed: "To "Bush", The voice with a smile. God Bless Her! Most sincerely, Gaston Glass. This signed photo came from a collection of photos signed to a Miss Lovilla Bush, often called Bush or Bushy by her actor friends. "There was switchboard operator (at the Algonquin Hotel in NYC), Lovilla Bush, affectionately nicknamed “Bushy,” who reputedly could track down anyone from Gertrude Lawrence to Noel Coward to J. Edgar Hoover. Hotel regulars didn’t even have to feed her phone numbers—she had ways and means to find anyone."(Source: Sandi Durell's "Theatre Pizzazz website, The Algonquin Kid, part II, by Michael Colby) Please Note: I am not an autograph dealer and do not issue COA's.
