I have an autographed picture of him from the show where he bought the motorcycle with the sidecar. He is sitting on th bike with the goggles and helmet on. On the back is a photo of him doing the signing.

To Don Knotts (Barney Fife), the greatest Cop that ever lived.

I think it said on Yahoo yesterday that he was 83

I have been a fan and Collector of Red Skelton for several years - I have also had the pleasure of meeting and talking to him a few times. I was able to do him a favor once (had a picture for him to sign and he wanted it - I gave it to him and in return, he ask for my address - he sent me a group of pictures from his TV show that included this one... About two years ago, I used the internet to find and contact the agent for Mr. Knotts. I wrote him and sent a copy of this picture... I ask him if I sent the Original, could he have Mr. Knotts please sign it... I also included my home number, dr lic number and where I worked - I wanted Everyone to know I was Not making $$ or some Nut - just a fan... I got a call and was told to sent it - This is one of my favorite pictures and I loved very much... Barney will be very missed by the World - there will Never be another Barney...

Both the Great men are now gone.....
