I always admired Apeng Daldal for his "clean, honest, fun---nothing obscene and no backstabbing" jokes. I first saw him, as a kid, in the TV show, The Big Show and later, Libis ng Baryo and Tindahan sa Kanto, all telecast on Channel 11. That was in 1964. Though underrated, I would rate him an above-par comedian probably in the league of Dolphy and Chiquito. Apeng, a fast talker and good ad-libber, was best remembered for his two protruding front teeth. Those teeth were his biggest asset and became his stepping stone to stardom.

He soon entered the movie world appearing in supporting roles --- his first movie appearance- Libis ng Baryo (1964) with Susan Roces, followed by Bandong Pugante (1964) with Eddie Rodriguez, Babaeng Kidlat (1964) with Dolphy, before being given a major role in 1965 in Sampaguita Pictures’ Magic Bilao and Walis ni Tengteng, both smash hits. His first starring role was Maskulado (1965). There’s no stopping Apeng from here on. He did Mistiko Meets Mamaw, Tatlong Mabilis, Tatlong Mabilis sa Hongkong, Pogi Dozen, Baticobra at Flying Salakot, among others.

Isa si Apeng Daldal sa mga comedian na nakapagpatawa sa akin, together with Dolphy, Panchito, Chiquito, Babalu, Cachupoy, Pugo, Bentot, Redford White. Sa ngayong mga komedyante, si Vic Sotto, Roderick Paulate at Michael V lang yata ang puwedeng ihanay sa kanila.
so sad kahit ni isa wala na tayong mabibili na movies niya...thx sa pagpost at info.
philippine classic movies

super galing sa style si apeng at iba pang kasabayan niya, favorite ko ang "cafeteria aroma" bago pumasok sa school...by the way saan ba makakakuha ng copy ng Pogi Dozen..this is my all time fave. thanks for posting!

Apeng was so underrated,he's not even mentioned as one of the best comedian in the Philippines. No one tops him on a standup act during his tine. He also wrote scripts for fellow comedians.
