Where, collectors and bargain hunters go... cSllirley’s ANTIQUES, ETCETERA and THRIFT ANNEX In Woodland Hills 5301 - 05 Topanga Canyon Blvd. 3 Blocks South of Ventura Blvd. Life-Iong love affair with books JOHN HARMON f The face is familiär? But you just can’t quite place him? John Harmon, character actor in films and television for the past 40 years frequently finds that people keep thinking they know him but usually can’t figure out where they met him. Harmon was a regulär on the Perry Mason series, played Eddie, the hotelman, on The Rifleman and worked regularly in The Roaring Twenties. Eight hundred shows in all, to be exact! He started in television with Dick Tracy and Terry and the Pirates in the early ’50’s and still works regularly as a character actor. A resident of Woodland Hills, Harmon has had a life-long love affair with books. He started as a private collector. Later as fellow actors wanted certain books that they couldn’t find, he started buying and selling on a private basis. Because he always gets so emotional over books he invariably bought more than he sold. When Shirley Lane decided to open Shirley’s Antiques Etc. on Topanga Canyon Boulevard in Woodland Hills, she thought it would be nice to have some books in the shop. She invited John to build a few shelves and start a book section. He did and now they number more than 10,000. Because of the phenomenal growth of this section, Shirley’s annex, another störe adjoining the antique shop, was recently added. John also buys private libraries and rare books. Harmon is married and has a son, Tracy, at Taft High School. However, Tracy’s interests are in the Taft Marching Band and the Reseda Youth Band. — M.E.S.

But this hasn’t left the tall, thin, green-eyed, 27-year-old, who’s starring in Walt Disney Productions’ adventure drama, “Napoleon and Samatha,” with any hang-ups. “It’s a natural thing to be compared with your father, except it' manifests itself umpteen times when he’s a famous actor whom people recognize readily,” Michael reasoned. “So, I understand vicariously how it interests them and I’ve solved the Situation within myself and without becoming victimized. “Beyond this little problem there has been a real advantage in having a father in the profession; it gave me a foothold and I learned to take nothing for granted. In other words, say somebody from Ohio or Iowa who has always wanted to be an actor goes to New York or Hollywood, he has to go through all the images and fantasies of acting before realizing the reality of it as a business, as well as an art form,” he said. “I was lucky enough to grow up in it and I was around famous people and saw how they conducted their lives, and knew their shortcomings and insecurities, and who were real and false. And so, by the time I got interested in acting I had developed a realistic Outlook about what I was getting into.”
