Edward Coghlan, Jr. (1916-2009), started appearing in films at the tender
age of 3 to help pay his father's tuition for chiropractic college. His first
appearances were bit roles in two-reel comedies until he caught the eye of Cecil
B. DeMille, who called Coghlan "the perfect example of a homeless waif".
He began appearing as Junior Coghlan in major silents like The Yankee
Clipper (1926), Let 'Er Go Gallegher (1927) and Slide, Kelly,
Slide (1927) and as the juvenile versions of Leon Janney in Penrod and
Sam (1930) and James Cagney in Public Enemy(1931). Fans of
Republic serials may also recognize him as Captain Marvel's alter-ego in The
Adventures of Captain Marvel (1941). In all, Coghlan had almost 130
film and TV appearances between 1920 and 1974, as well as a 23-year career
as an aviator in the United States Navy. Fine condition.
