Jay North, who played the title role in Dennis The Menace has died, he was 73. The show was a favorite of mine as a kid, it would be cancelled in 1963.
Many years later, it became one of the first shows, (along with Leave It To Beaver and Highway Patrol) that I would watch in syndicated reruns.
I would also watch North in the NBC show Maya from 1967-1968.

I like his neighbor too in the show. In the original 1959-1963 Dennis the Menace TV series, the actor who played Dennis's neighbor, George Wilson, was Joseph Kearns, and later, Gale Gordon.
Joseph Kearns: Played George Wilson in the original TV series from 1959 until his death in 1962.
Gale Gordon: Took over the role of George Wilson after Joseph Kearns's death.
