[Victor Buono and Dan Seymour.]
Diane Schirf suggested these actors for a separated-at-birth post. Yes. But finding a pair of photographs to suggest the resemblance was more difficult than I expected. Searching for “dan seymour” actor turns up relatively little (and that little includes a photo of Victor Buono). If this pair of photographs doesn’t convince you, please, take Diane’s word for it (and mine): these guys strongly resemble one other.

They do! I thought they were the same person until I realized they couldn't be (different eras).
This is pure Perry. I think I can locate another. My saying "he's a poor man's Victor Buono" Or poor man's Edward Arnold.
The one on the left I found with no identification. I’d be happy if it’s from Perry Mason. The one on the right is from Key Largo.
That may be from Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?.

Thanks for the identification.

If I notice someone on Perry, I'll name a note of it.
Now if someone can tell me the size paper he sometimes reads his notes from in court, I will be a happy man.
Thanks for the links. When I saw the second, I thought, Man, Victor Buono looks more like Dan Seymour than I realized. And then I thought, Wait, that is Seymour.
Yes, they have different hairlines, and Seymour had heavier eyebrows. But they really do look an awful lot alike (although both were heavyset, I think Buono may have been taller). Take my word! I've seen Seymour in at least three movies. :)
Both played an adam west batman villain, victor was king tut, dan was the mandarin
Nice! I remember King Tut, but I couldn’t have told you which guy of the two played him.
