Description: Mary McDonough & Scott Baio SIGNED Cards with Photo in very good condition During his heyday as a teen idol, Scott Baio received 5,000 letters per week from adoring fans. Just as the urban edge had worked for a number of rising screen stars in the 1970s (i.e., John Travolta), Baio adopted a similar stance. His thick Brooklyn accent, disco mop of hair, bronze color and tight jeans were turn-ons for young teens who tuned into "Happy Days" (ABC-CBS, 1969-1984) to watch him as Chachi Arcola. Baio gave them not just sitcom froth, though, but also a host of dramatic performances of teens in trouble. When the teen idol days petered out and the offers for feature films and dramatic roles dissipated, Baio turned to silly sitcoms such as "Charles in Charge" - which also allowed him to move behind the camera as a director - while continuing to maintain a strong following with fans. Though he seemed poised for a return to stardom in 1993 with a dramatic turn on "Diagnosis Murder" (CBS, 1993-2001), Baio left after the first season - a sign that his career was taking a downward turn. But he returned to prominence in 2007 by riding the reality series gravy train with "Scott Baio is 45 and Single" (VH1, 2006- ), a journey of self-discovery that promised to resurrect his love life as well as his career. Best known as oft love-struck Erin of "The Waltons" clan, Mary Elizabeth McDonough grew up in front of a national audience, having been cast on the family drama at age 10. During the series' nine-season run, little Erin developed, fell in love easy and often, graduated high school, got a job, and married. When the show came to a close in 1981, McDonough was 20 years old, and ready to move on. She appeared in a string of forgettable films like the undercover cheerleader revenge drama, "Lovely but Deadly," the Mozart-fueled horror movie, "Mortuary," and the raunchy comedy "Snowballing." To bolster her transition from child actress to sexy starlet, McDonough elected to have cosmetic breast augmentation performed. Infamously, she later blamed the implants when she was diagnosed with Lupus erythematosus. The bad press hurt her reputation, and while she went on to appear on such popular programs as "Picket Fences," "ER," "The West Wing," and "Will & Grace," it was rare she was cast in roles that extended beyond one episode. In 2006, she snagged a recurring role on Julia Louis-Dreyfus's sitcom "The New Adventures of Old Christine," but the show was cancelled in May of 2010.
