“Leaves you speechless, such an early icon of television,” Roush says. Indeed, the man who played New York City’s mouthiest bus driver, Ralph Kramden, in skits on his 1950s–70s variety shows and on the sitcom The Honeymooners (1955–56) never won an Emmy, losing out to Danny Thomas, Phil Silvers and Donald O’Connor. Co-star Art Carney, who picked up five for playing Kramden’s neighbor, reportedly hid his trophies whenever his pal visited.
