ernie orsatti and mike donlin with buster keaton

Being a big Buster Keaton fan, I was excited to find these photos of him with Turkey Mike Donlin and Ernie Orsatti. However, the Donlin picture lists him as being on the far right and the man in this photo is clearly too old to be donlin (unless he wore heave makeup?).




From Sherlock Jr. Orsatti is the cop driving the bike:



Cast photo from free and easy. Apparently Orsatti just returned from the world series as this was taken just after the 1930 series:

The first pic of Keaton under the table is of the 1927 CLASSIC " The General " . Mike Donlin is credited as being "Union General " TOP 5 MOVIES OF ALL TIME !!!

the thing is, donlin would have only been 50 when they made this, and the guy on the far right appears to be way over 50

I think Rhys is correct, that looks like Donlin second from left, with his left elbow on the table.

As many know, Babe Ruth appeared in a Harold Lloyd silent movie.
