Palumbo has the cheek skin of a 100 year old man and still punches out rat poison that was made in the early 1900's...

I would say he is the oldest amateur...

Clancy Ross is 84 and alive and well in California. Eliott Gilchrist is about the same age, I believe alive and well in NY. Jack L is 93, and you still see him in his infomercials.

I think Clancy Ross is the oldest surviving Mr. America winner, with Alan Stephen and Jules Bacon both recently passing.

Clancy Ross sounds like the fat and friendly female host of a weekly pie cooking special on tv.
