Here we see silent film star turned talkie star Charley Chase waving to all the excited guests of Movieland Wax Museum. He's seen here in the 1929 motion picture Modern Love. Chase shares the set with the far more famous Buster Keaton, but the little amount of detail and time given to Charley doesn't seem to bother him much. He just keeps on waving and smiling.
A flash shot of Mr. Chase shows a little more detail than the precious picture (with all of its mood lighting) does.
He doesn't look like it in real life, but his figure sure looks like a rodent.
Yes, Charley did star in many Hal Roach pictures. The Charley Chase figure sold at the Movieland auction for $650, more than $3000 less than the Buster Keaton figure did.Find more information on Charley Chase here.
