Sheldon "Bugs" Deal I


I'm still hoping someone out there knows how Sheldon "Bugs" Deal got his nickname.  When I asked a few years ago, no one knew.  He will appear again later today in a different pose.

  2. The gangster Bugsy Siegel got his nickname as he was said to be very short tempered and would become totally unglued. Deal was in the marine corps stationed in Virginia at time he posed for Collier. No doubt other marines had a field day making fun of his first name Sheldon, and it may have bugged the hell out of him to the point he became known as Bugs….:)
