On November 21, 1975, Carmel Myers capped off her career with a guest spot on the classic hit sitcom CHICO AND THE MAN, playing a former silent screen star who happens to drive her '29 Packard into Ed' Garage. Except for a cameo in WON TON TON, THE DOG WHO SAVED HOLLYWOOD, this would be her last acting appearance (she passed away in 1980, aged 81). Her tango scene with Jack Albertson is a gem, and by the end of the show you'll be wishing you could climb into the screen and ask her for her autograph. Listen for her to mention John Barrymore, her real-life co-star.
