On Wikipedia, there was a source of a 2001 interview with him about his work here:http://www.lumandabnersociety.org/DICK_BEALS.html, but unfortunately if you click on the link, the page to the 2001 interview no longer exists anymore, but I can no longer read it anymore. According whoever added it in the article, it says that Beals denied it in the interview when he was asked that question about Gumby. I took their word on it and I even tried to delete his Gumby credits on IMDb, but unfortunately IMDb won’t delete them. It’s probably because they are sticking to what the sources say on the internet, about Beals voicing Gumby. So unfortunately, all this info is just really confusing, I even listed to his voice and it literally sounds so identical to what Gumby sounded like in the 1960s episodes. So yeah, I just don’t know what’s false and what’s true anymore.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403931334822730200.post-18023707690122213342023-09-25T22:22:21.995-07:002023-09-25T22:22:21.995-07:00But some sources for example like the New York Tim...But some sources for example like the New York Times, Los Angeles Times, ABC News and etc. all say he did the voice, to me all these sources are getting really confusing to me.

I think this may be where the confusion came from - some people may not have known that Dick Beals wasn't Davey for the entire run, and assumed that the Gumby voice that sounded like Davey was Beals.<br /><br />Gumbyworld.com, which is run by Premavision, says that McMillan was the late-60s Gumby. However, it also says that Beals subbed for some episodes in the mid 60s (and that Ginny Tyler subbed in the early 60s).<br /><br />I guess one would have to listen to every episode, with their original soundtracks, to figure it out.Jeffrey Graynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5403931334822730200.post-15824911794652131912012-05-30T14:06:33.272-07:002012-05-30T14:06:33.272-07:00Actually, Ruth Eggleston was the original Gumby.
