I believe that is the legendary Elmer T Fudd. When Looney Tunes went through tough times in the late 60's he got pink slipped. To make ends meet he worked as a "persuader" (mob enforcer) for some of the bigger names in Vegas. After a late night run-in with some weasels working as valets at The Stardust, Mr. Fudd (or "The Big F" as many of the showgirls called him) was found in an alley off of Tropicana with a safe dropped on his head. This ended his illustious career in organized crime. He went back to work for Looney Tunes, working for scale as an extra. He and Sinatra were reunited in 1974 when Elmer was brought in as a vocal coach for Nancy's short-lived singing career. "Shhhhhhhh, be vewy vewy quiet; I'm hunting cocktwail waitwisthes, heheheheheheh,"
"Frank's Lawyer" by: Aaron Semmel	@ 06:13:19 pm on June 14 2007
Hello, my name is Aaron Semmel. I work for Guy McElwaine. Guy was Frank's manager for 20 years. He has identified the gentleman in the picture with Frank Sinatra and Kirk Kerkorian... The man in the photo standing next to Frank in the forground looking directly at the camera is Mickey Rudin, he was Frank's lawyer. Amazing pictures... really brought back some memories for Guy. Thanks.
