Mayor LaTrivia was a regular character on Fibber & Molly, played by Gale Gordon. Upon what historical figure was this character undoubtedly based?

  1. Of course, I don't know for sure, but because of the construction of the last name, I suspect it was New York mayor Fiorello LaGuardia.

  2. I don't even know who that is/was. I figured since he was round and had a cigar WC was a good guess.

  3. You can look him up on line. He was a very colorful mayor of New York several decades back.
