The scene of Wally Trumbull’s only foray into medicine, as part of a freelance article for National Geographic entitled “Under the Knife in North America: An Expose of Medicine in the Other Boroughs.†Wally was the lead surgeon on duty when local police hero Frank Vincent Serpico was carted in after being shot at point-blank range during a purported set-up in Williamsburg on Feb 3, 1971. While removing the .22 caliber bullet from Serpico’s face, Wally impacted the already fraying auditory nerve in the officer’s left ear, causing him to go half-deaf, and preventing the author from casting him in his off-Broadway musical, “Me and the Other Pope,†much to the chagrin of both. Out of respect, Wally would force at gunpoint the play’s lead actor, one Hillel O’Neal, to change his name to Frank Vincent, in tribute to the injured officer.
Limited quantities of this and other Trumbull posters are available in our store.

This desig is steller! You obvioisly know how to keesp
a reader entertained. Between your wit and your videos, I was
almost moved to start my own blog (well, almost…HaHa!) Excelent job.
I really enjoyed what you hadd to say, and more than that, how you presented it.
Too cool!
I am trying to find out some terrific information sites for reading. I had been looking over search engines and discovered your website. Nicely i enjoy your high quality weblog layout plus your writing abilities. Carry on doing it.
This takes me back to when my two daughters were young and everyday was hard work. Days when you are sick and tired of the constant financial struggle. Its not just food, its the stamp you need to post the birthday card you’ve made, the shop that sells real bargains, but it is a bus/train ride away and you don’t have the fare,the very well meaning people who inform you how inexpensive something may be, but when you have nothing, everything is inaccessible. Banging your head against a brick wall because you think you may have found a solution then something, some body, lack of funds, etc. prevent you from going any further forward. It is absolutely disgusting and so, so wrong that this is happening and has been happening in a country of our relative wealth, and I feel for you. I really do. You are however, a very strong (whether these events make us stronger, or if its a strength somewhere hidden until times likes these), capable survivor. This is something you will have been told over and over again I am sure, but there are days when it is just not enough!!! Hopefully, you are on your way out of this situation and I wish you all the very best with your book, but mostly that you and your boy have a happy and healthy future ahead of you.
I’m excited to uncover this web site. I wanted to thank you for
ones time just for this fantastic read!! I definitely enjoyed
every little bit of it and i also have you saved to fav to check out new information on your website.
This piece was a wake-up signal for me. I say I’ve hearded
about that like million times yet this time is big eye opener for
some reason. Thanks you for writing this stuff.
My wife and i were really glad when Ervin could carry out his analysis with the precious recommendations he got through the site. It’s not at all simplistic to just find yourself giving for free hints others have been selling. And we also keep in mind we have you to be grateful to for this. The entire explanations you have made, the simple web site menu, the friendships you can make it easier to engender – it’s all extraordinary, and it is making our son and us reason why the matter is interesting, which is very fundamental. Thank you for all the pieces!
Since the admin of this site is working, no question very
soon it will be renowned, due to its quality contents.
There is definately a great deal to know about this issue.
I like all of the points you have made.
Unquestionably imagine that that you said. Your favorite
justification seemed to be on the internet the simplest factor to take into accout of.
I say to you, I definitely get irked while other folks think about issues that
they plainly don’t recognise about. You controlled
to hit the nail upon the highest as smartly as defined out the whole thing
with no need side-effects , people can take a signal. Will likely be again to get more.
Thanks
I am actually delighted to read this web site posts which consists of lots of
useful facts, thanks for providing such data.
I believe what you published made a ton of
sense. However, think about this, what if you composed a catchier post title?
I am not saying your information isn’t solid,
however what if you added a headline to possibly get a person’s attention? I mean Wally Trumbull’s New York: Greenpoint Hospital – 300 Skillman Ave | Trumbull Island
is kinda vanilla. You could glance at Yahoo’s front page
and see how they create news titles to get viewers interested.
You might add a video or a pic or two to get readers interested about everything’ve written. In my opinion, it might bring your
posts a little bit more interesting.
Thanks for any other informative blog. Where else may just I am getting that kind of info written in such a perfect
approach? I’ve a project that I’m just now running on, and I’ve been on the
look out for such information.
Please let me know if you’re looking for a article writer for your site.
You have some really great articles and I believe I would be a good asset.
If you ever want to take some of the load off, I’d love to write some articles for your blog in exchange for
a link back to mine. Please blast me an email if interested.
