Richard H. Cutting(1912-1972)
- Actor
In the 1950s Richard Cutting derived fame as "Manners," a tiny butler
in a Bowler derby hat in a series of commercials for Kleenex Napkins.
By trick photography he appeared to be about only inches in height and
would manifest under a dinner table in a traditional butler's cutaway.
A paper napkin was always slipping off the lap of a diner, giving
Manners the opportunity, after a polite "ahem," to inform the guest of
the non-slip benefit of the Kleenex napkin.
