I haven't seen the film with Reagan and Beery but in stills Beery appears to not be standing straight, whether he'd lost height or was just slouching I don't know. Certainly I think near six feet was possible in his earlier roles.

Rob can you tweak "He was describe" and add China Seas, Billy the Kid, The Bad Man and A Date with Judy?

Thanks Rob. Seems about right. I agree Sam he could look near 6 ft, but other times near 5 ft 11. One of those Niven/Van Heflin type guys. Gable at times though could look less than 184 Sam!

Thanks for adding! I suppose this is a happy middle ground between Arch's 181 cm estimate and my 183 cm estimate. At times he could look an inch under Clark Gable, then others very similar height.
