TRIVIA TIME
Question: Within his lifetime as the legendary Man of A Thousand Voices, what did Mel Blanc personally consider his greatest achievement?

Answer: Within the pages of That's Not All Folks, the biography he co-wrote with Phillip Bashe that was published in 1988, there are two aspects to this answer.
Personally: it was his family. Mel was married to his wife Estelle for 56 years at the time of his passing, with the union begetting one son: Noel.
Professionally: it was his ability to sing on key, in character.
