From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Irving Bacon (September 6, 1893 – February 5, 1965) was an American character actor who appeared in almost 500 films. Bacon played on the stage for a number of years before getting into films in 1920. He was sometimes cast in films directed by Lloyd Bacon (incorrectly named as his brother in some sources) such as The Amazing Dr. Clitterhouse (1938). He often played comical "average guys". In the late 1930s and early 1940s, he played the weary postman Mr. Crumb in Columbia Pictures' Blondie film series. One of his bigger roles was as a similarly flustered postman in the thriller Cause for Alarm! in 1952. During the 1950s, Bacon worked steadily in a number of television sitcoms, most notably I Love Lucy, where he appeared in two episodes, one which cast him as Ethel Mertz's father.

Irving Bacon (6. September 1893 – 5. Februar 1965) war ein US-amerikanischer Charakterdarsteller, der in fast 500 Filmen mitwirkte. Bacon spielte mehrere Jahre Theater, bevor er 1920 zum Film kam. Er wirkte gelegentlich in Filmen von Lloyd Bacon mit (in manchen Quellen fälschlicherweise als sein Bruder bezeichnet), wie beispielsweise in „Der unglaubliche Dr. Clitterhouse“ (1938). Oft verkörperte er komische Durchschnittstypen. Ende der 1930er und Anfang der 1940er Jahre spielte er den müden Postboten Mr. Crumb in der „Blondie“-Filmreihe von Columbia Pictures. Eine seiner größeren Rollen war die eines ähnlich aufgeregten Postboten in dem Thriller „Cause for Alarm!“ (1952). In den 1950er Jahren war Bacon regelmäßig in verschiedenen Fernseh-Sitcoms zu sehen, insbesondere in „I Love Lucy“, wo er in zwei Folgen auftrat, in einer davon als Ethel Mertz’ Vater.
