Tiny with his father, Butros Khaury, on Riverside Dr. in New York, in
1939. Tiny would have been eight years old. Tiny's real name is
Herbert Khaury. Tiny came up with the fake middle name of
"Buckingham", saying that he liked it because it had a royal sound to
it! Tiny's father was from Lebanon. His mother Tillie was Jewish, and
was from Poland. One of her sisters was killed in the holocaust.
