Gee, Wally. You're going to the Louvre?
Apparently so: 'Leave It to Beaver' actor to show at the Louvre

"11/10 FOX News LOS ANGELES – Eat your heart out, Eddie Haskell.

Tony Dow, best known as the actor who portrayed The Beav's big brother, Wally, in the '50s TV series "Leave It to Beaver," will have one of his abstract sculptures on display at the Louvre. Several sculptors from the Karen Lynne Gallery — including Dow — will have their works shown at the historic art museum in Paris as part of the Societe Nationale des Beaux-Arts exhibition.

"Having something shown at the Louvre is about as good as you can get," said Dow, who lives in Los Angeles, "especially when it's a juried show like this where there's a panel of judges who pick the pieces to be in the exhibition. I'm a little humbled by the whole thing but grateful nonetheless.""

4. I knew him back in the day.
We went to junior high together. And The Beav's (Jerry Mathers') father was the vice principle of my High School. After Beaver finished its run I figured he just faded into oblivion like so many other child stars. Glad to hear he had something other than acting to do. (He wasn't really a very good actor. ;) )
