The
Billy Barty Show  I
remember the Billy Barty Show but I don't remember the toons or
routines he offered, but he was really good with the kids in the audience.
If you are too young to remember him, he played "The Dwarf" in the movie
"Foul Play". He was, of course, a real dwarf.

Hi...I have been tring to find some info
on the Billy Barty show you mention on your blog. I was a contestant on
the show when I was 8 (with my brownie troop in my uniform and all...we
also went on the Jack-in-the-Box show).
I am really having a touch time finding out info or is there is ANY possibility
of any tapes anywhere of the show.
Just as an FYI... I won the GRAND prize in the "Surpise Prize"
game, played at the end of the show. I think it was taped at KTTV, and
I do remember it was BLAZING hot, no air conditioning in the very large
studio (Jack-in-the Box was a much smaller studio).
