*A:M User* Roger Posted March 19, 2015 *A:M User* Share Posted March 19, 2015 Apparently the character of Popeye was based on an actual person: Frank Fiegel, a sailor and local tough guy that E.C. Segar knew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admin Rodney Posted March 21, 2015 Admin Share Posted March 21, 2015 Ya know... life is funny. I just got a message last night from my daughter's school and the superintendent/caller's name was Fiegel. I don't recall ever hearing that name before but this topic made me think... hmmmm.... I have heard that name before... I wonder... It seems that Frank Fiegel was a native of Chester, Illinois which isn't very far from where I am. I even visited there before (and was a little disappointed that popeye wasn't plastered all over the place). At any rate, I'd say the odds are very good that this Fiegel is related to that (Frank) Fiegel. From a wikia entry: Frank "Rocky" Fiegel (January 27, 1868 - March 24, 1947) was a real-life person from E. C. Segar's home town of Chester, Illinois who (like J. William Schuchert and Dora Paskel) inspired a Thimble Theatre character. In this case, Popeye. Frank Fiegel, nicknamed "Rocky", was a well-known Chester individual. Something of a local legend, he supposedly had an inordinate strength and often participated in fights. Like Popeye, he smoked a pipe and was toothless. He is said to have been kind to children as well. Since 1996, his gravestone bears an engraving of Popeye's face as he first appeared in Thimble Theatre.

Admin Rodney Posted March 21, 2015 Admin Share Posted March 21, 2015 Oh Oh. In other popeye news... While it sounds like the project is still moving forward Genndy Tartakovsky apparently has left Sony's animated 'Popeye' film. http://www.awn.com/news/tartakovsky-exits-sonys-popeye Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
