Tiny Sandford

"Tiny" Sandford (February 26, 1894 – October 29, 1961) was an American actor who is best remembered for his roles in Laurel and Hardy and Charlie Chaplin films.

His tall, burly physique usually led him to be cast as a comic heavy, and often played policemen, doormen, prizefighters, or bullies.

Other Chaplin films that he appeared in include The Circus (1928) and Modern Times (1936), where he plays "Big Bill".

His films with Laurel and Hardy include Big Business (1929), Double Whoopee (1929), The Chimp (1932), and Our Relations (1936).
