Efforts should be made to take a free licensed photo during a public appearance, or obtaining a free content release of an existing photo instead.

[edit] Photo

There should be a photo of Pernell Roberts uploaded to this page. Does anyone have one? Better yet,three: one as Adam Cartwright, one as Trapper John and a recent photo of the actor himself.

[edit] Early Years

There should be more info on his life before acting. No biographical sheet would be complete without mention of the fact that Pernell Roberts has been representing the Christian Childrens Fund on endless TV spots over the years. He don't look nothing like Adam anymore. Most people would not know who the white haired old man on these ads is since they never mention his name.==

REPLY: Please be sure of your facts. Pernell Roberts was ABSOLUTELY NOT the elderly, bald-headed gentleman who emcees those Christian Children's Funds, nor any other such outreach. In one commercial, the man even gives his own name- IT IS NOT PERNELL ROBERTS!!! Please delete!

Point two: Roberts never, ever did Soap Operas as was stated in the article. The contributer is clearly confused with another "Bonanza" actor, David Canary, who was added to the cast in 1967- two years after Roberts left. They didn't even play the same character. Please delete!

It's not a forum, and you're welcome to delete whatever you think is incorrect, rather than ranting at other editors. Her Pegship (tis herself) 23:00, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
