<table align="right"><tr><th>http://www.mayberry.info/graphics/mr_schwamp_floyds_barbershop.jpg<br />Mr. Schwamp...the man...the mystery.</th></tr></table><br />
Mr. Schwamp (or Schwump, as he is better known) is the older dark haired man you often see sitting on the bench outside the barbershop or in groups of people in Mayberry.<br />
<br />
Over the years, every cast and crew member of The Andy Griffith Show has been asked if they know the name of the actor who played Mr. Schwamp. While all of them remember him, none of them knows his real name. (And yes, Andy Griffith has been asked, as has Producer Richard Linke.)<br />
==Episodes==<br />
'''There are 26 documented Schwamp episodes:'''<br>''Mr. Schwamp never speaks so you'll have to watch closely to spot him. A few times he is called by name, but usually he's just in the background, sometimes waaaay in the background.''<br />
