           According to Sampo's 'This Date In MSTory' post for the 12th of   
   February, over at mst3kinfo.com, on this date in 1863 Charles Schaeffer,   
   who played Magma in the _Undersea Kingdom_ serial, was born.   
      
           After a year of checking the Date in MSTory with just some days   
   missed by accident, I feel I can say with reasonable confidence: this   
   is the earliest-born person to have participated in an MST3K'd movie or   
   short.   
      
           I might have overlooked somebody.  He *seems* to be the only   
   person born before the end of the Civil War to appear on MST3K, except   
   for Leonardo da Vinci.
