Jimmy Durante

Sadly, I've only actually seen him in "It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World," besides in cartoons and charicatures.

Awesome image! Great solve!
C14R8 has to be a dot. That takes you long ways after LL.
Then try to place the 2nd 4 on C6 and the last 3 in C7. Voila!

I succeed the solving without guessing, but not was easy. While counted three own variations.

I actually saw Jimmy Duante in person. Keep in mind, I'm 72. It was about 60 years ago when I saw him. I was at a race track (Del Mar). My mother persuaded me to get his autograph, even though, I didn't really know who he was. He was very nice to me. I remember that.

Wow! I had a similar experience with Earl Campbell. I was at a honky tonk bar with my then-boyfriend, so I assumed he was a country singer. Hardly in the same league as Jimmy Durante!
