Bert Convey Wiki Page

Bert Convey (1933-1991) is best known as the handsome host and a frequent panelist on a bevy of television game shows in the 60's, 70', and 80's.

Sadly, he's unrecognizable in the single black and white photo from a one-time acting 1960 appearance on his wiki page where he's depicted looking weathered and stunned and scruffy stunned in a pith helmet, beard and para-military uniform... rather than his curly locks, stellar smile, and usual dapper manner of dress.

Countless full-color photos capturing a better and more up-to-date likeness of Mr. Convey as he should be remembered as his sensational handsome self are available online... and would serve a tremendous and more fitting tribute to this fine gentleman who passed at the early age of 57.

Plus Wikipedia readers are far more likely recognize him as he appeared at the height of his memorable television career.

I'd like to see how we can replace the existing photo with this one that captures Mr. Convey at his very best.

@Alley Ascot: At least as far as anything involving Commons is concerned, you would have to find a public-domain or free-licensed photo from the appropriate period of his life. I see no reason to believe the image you've linked would be an example of that. You may want to read COM:THIRD. - Jmabel ! talk 05:12, 3 December 2025 (UTC)Reply
