DEDICATED TO WALTER TETLEY AND THE OTHER VOICE ACTORS WITH JAY WARD PRODUCTIONS
Hey Brian. I have an old autograph album from the early 1930s that belonged to an actress (broadway stuff) and some radio personalities. One page has the following inscription “To Patricia Waters with best wishes from Walter C. Tetley.” Me thinks it your boy Peabody (the next page is signed by Vivian Smolen of the […]
I found your Walter Tetley web page today and have very mixed feelings. As fan of Walter on both the Great Gildersleve and The Phil Harris shows I was always entertained by his wisecracking comments. Now I hear these programs on a regular basis thanks to Stan Freberg’s late night radio program “When Radio was…” […]
I discovered this photo in a box of family photos. My Mom had mentioned his name several times, but I never knew much about him, except that he was a family friend. Enjoy! Suzanne Hi I talked with my Dad on the phone a few minutes ago and he gave me some info concerning Walter […]
I recently discovered your website. Thanks for remembering the great voice talent in the brilliant Jay Ward cartoon shows. I have one addendum: Walter Tetley indeed worked for Walter Lantz … in fact, he voiced one of Lantz’s key characters: Andy Panda. Karl W Thanks for your email, Karl. I did know about Andy Panda. I […]
Hi! My husband & I were watching an old movie the other night called”A Pocket Full Of Miracles” starring Bette Davis. There was a butler in the film and halfway through the movie I noticed that his voice was strangely familiar. I said, “doesn’t he sound like the voice from Fractured Fairy Tales?” The next […]
Hello, I found your website today and was pleased to read about Walter Tetley. I remember him mostly from the ’40s as Leroy on the Great Gildersleeve. I recall that in the story line, Leroy was undergoing voice training and would occasionally sing when asked to do so by his uncle. I don’t know whether […]
Alas, I fear it won’t happen. Please forgive in advance. I am a 48-yr. old resident of Germantown, Maryland who has taken it upon himself to construct a time machine. Being somewhat mechanically challenged (changing light bulbs being the extent of any acquired expertise), I decided it was much more practical to surround myself with […]
I remember Mr. Tetley from the original run of The Great Gildersleeve in the 1940’s and 1950’s. As you did, I assumed the actor was a kid, like me! Mr. Tetley was featured in several cuts of Stan Freberg Presents the United States of America. That album, originally recorded over forty years ago, is available […]
Dear Brian Hi there. Great page We need to know the name of the “blowhard” explorer from the series. Every other part of the show is well documented but I can not find any info at all about the character. His name is most important but any other info would also be nice. Again: Thanks […]
I;’m glad the site’s been up, I’ve been going on it for a few years. In regards to my fellow Hans Conreid fan Suzanne, the only voice actors who seem to get ANY recognition are the ones for modern shows (and by modern I am incoudiong 1980s shows), stuff that I largely don’t care for. […]
