Armes (born Julian Jay Armas; August 12, – September 19, ), was an American private investigator and actor. He was known for his prosthetic hands and a line of children's action figures based on his image.[1]
Early life and education
Armes was born to Mexican-American parents Pedro and Beatriz in Ysleta, a low-income area near El Paso, Texas, now a southeast El Paso neighborhood.[2] His father was a grocer.[3] At the age of eleven, he and his friend Dick Caples, seven years his senior, broke into a Texas & Pacific Railroad section house and stole railway torpedoes.
Armes rubbed two torpedo sticks together,[4]
